[QUOTE="Randy B. Singer, post: 1948713, member: 190607"] I maintain about a dozen Web sites, and put out a newsletter. All of them completely non-commercial and free. Folks are always asking for me to do additional things that would be a lot more work. I can't do it all. I've considered putting a graphic saying "NEW!" next to new entries on my Free Macintosh Software site, but the thing is, I update that page constantly. The question would be when to take off the NEW graphics. Leave them up too long, and they become worthless as a large number of the apps will have them. Take them down too early and folks who haven't visited the page in a while will complain. I find that when I go through the entire page myself, I often note software that I hadn't thought much about previously, and it's like a new discovery. I don't think that going through the entire page to find things that you might like is an onerous task. You might like to do it a few times a year. I do it all the time, and I still like seeing the nice assortment of free software at my disposal. Oh, by the way, during the update a couple of days ago, I added these three awesome additions: - MacJournal - Mist - Marathon I'm already evaluating a few more potential additions to the page!
