Eight free Windows 7 tools

I don't know if these are really the top free applications. But the suggestion in this article from Infoworld do look interesting and hence I am pointing out to my readers too. These applications are, in no particular order, evernote, desktops, FastStone photo resizer, easy duplicate file finder, teamviewer, dropbox, clip training and AllMyApps. They are all free so, there is no stake in trying them out, drop them if you do not like any one of them. But if it can ease the hassle we all go through everyday, these will be worthwhile.


Evernote makes it very easy to take all kinds of notes, including audio, images, video. It lets you sync the notes with all kinds of machines including your smartphone.


Desktops is for creating desktops to your liking and you can have up to four of these virtual desktops.


FastStone photo resizer would let you rename the photos als when you resize them. Besides, it will let you crop and rotate the pictures as also adding a watermark or a logo. You can change the color depth of the images too.


Easy duplicate finder does just that. It finds all the duplicates quickly and lets you resolve them easily and safely.


Teamviewer lets you share your desktop with others and make communicating about specific issues meaningful.


Dropbox makes remote backup, in this case in the cloud, very simple. You just drop the files to be backed up into this box/folder and you are done!  The files can be synced by other users on on other machines. Wioth 2GB free space that is quite useful to start with.


AllMyApps collects applications, has some 1600 now, and lets you download a collection and install them in one go. You do not have to install them one by one.


That leaves the clip training which is a collection of some 100 training videos about Windows 7 features including some of Office functionalities too.


Go ahead, try them and see which of them save you some bother!!!!
