Title: What software do you use?
Post by: TheBlackCat on April 18, 2010, 12:53:53 AM
An informal poll: Which program of the following types do you use? If you don't regularly use a program of that type, you can say "None" or just leave that category out. Feel free to add additional categories if there is a type of program you use a lot but isn't on here. If you use two about equally you can show both, but it is better to just put one.

And file types (if you routinely make files in this category: Text Document: Image: Audio/Music: Video: Drawing/Vector Art: Compressed File: Hard Drive Partition:
edit: added launcher per insanalord's suggestion edit: added programming language, media center, home networking, and split some ambiguous categories
