I was reminded of my love for free stuff by a reader...
A reader of one of my posts was selling my on SharpReader and reminded me of my true passions. Free stuff! Even better than free stuff is free stuff that is really, really cool!
Speaking of which Jeff Key has made a bunch of free cool .NET utilities and one of the coolest (and most talked about lately) is the Snippet Compiler. Jeff is looking to add an editor control by Syncfusion that would add intellisense to the editor. If you haven't checked out this little app, then hop on over to his site and take a peek.
If you love it as much as everyone else (including myself) seems to, why don't you donate a couple of bucks. Yes, I know that makes it technically "not free" but even if some of the readers dontate a dollar, he will be able to add more functionality into the product. I would say the same for any app that people release for free (and you really like it and use it). Give 'em a couple of buck so that they can afford to continue to make great apps. I would venture to guess that a majority of the time, developers stop building free or open source apps because it takes up a lot of time and there is not even the slightest financial incentive.
Well, I am done preaching and I am on my way over to Jeff's site to donate. Later!
