Hall Of Fame, Best of Everything
This hall of fame is created to help users find anything they want in once place. We want this place to be the one stop shop to find the best softwares, utilities and much more in one place.
We spent over 5 days to generate a list of top software in different categories that will help you find tools easier and better.
The list is incomplete and your inputs are welcome so that we can keep on adding to the list and make it a one place stop for anyone to find things they want. This list will be regularly updated with both user inputs as well when we find more softwares that fit into any category or something that is missing in the list.
If you are looking to find helpful utilities, softwares or websites with in-depth reviews you can visit our page which holds information about the must have utilities, softwares and websites.

I suppose this is a list of the most popular software, and not necessarily the best. Otherwise, i’d make a few changes as below (latest version of all the software).
IMO
Best browser – Opera. (IE shouldnt even be on the list lol)
Best defragmenter – Diskeeper Pro. None of those listed can even defrag the MFT.
Best Image editing program – Adobe Photoshop. By far. GIMP doesn’t even come close; it’s UI is a nightmare.
Best Anti-virus – Kaspersky. I use AVG, and I know it’s not bad, but it missed a couple of issues that even lousy McAffee caught. Kaspersky is awesome.
Most of the others are pretty good picks.
BTW, good job putting Vista over Leopard

Hooray, BatchBook is number five in the Contacts Manager category! Thanks for including us. We’re currently working on some new features to help folks better organize their contacts and run their businesses.
Cheers and Happy New Year! Maybe next year we can get to #4

I agree with ADrive being the top online file storage site. It’s better and offers more than the other sites.

Man this is a very big list. Even I had a thought of preparing a list. Now I guess you have covered most.
Also you could include MoveableType, Google Desktop for Launching programs

Great lists. Top 5 Online File Storage Sites: very helpful to find out about these services. I researched all on the list. ADrive offers 50GB for free, that can’t be true. So I dug deeper no fine print. I am hooked.

Great Idea, Great Start!
A few suggestions:
1) the list is very long – a Contents/Index of categories at the top would be very helpful.
2) A time-related program category – e.g.
Time Synch – I use Atomic Clock Sync (free from http://www.worldtimeserver.com), which adjusts the Windows Internet time schedule, rather than trying to do the job itself (saves resources). Means I get the time updated more regularly, rather than hope my PC will be on on the one occasion a week windows default schedule checks for time updates.
Tclockex – free – gives Windows XP useful extra clock/calendar features – probably no longer needed for Vista.
Countdown Timer II (free for personal use, from http://www.Karenware.com) – keeps me from burning things in the oven when I get caught up with PC stuff.
3) A Domain Registrar category. This could be interesting, as everyone has different needs. I currently use 1and1.com because for US$9/yr I can get a domain name with 2GB email storage, a catch-all email account effectively giving me unlimited email addresses, and the ability to send and receive email using POP3.
4) A System Information Tools Category. I use Belarc Advisor (free for personal use).
