Downloading and trying programs is kind of a hobby for me since 1993. I love trying new programs and testing them. Needless to say, sometimes I have a large collection of freebies (and some not free) which I forget to delete. I've done this for years and have reviewed for three websites including Mozilla Add-Ons.

It is my hope that people who read reviews are careful in their selection of a product before installing it. Sometimes one person's good or bad review is the opposite for another. So, sometimes I download something even thought it has bad reviews, and sometimes I download something with good reviews and discover it to be either a dud or unsuitable for my needs. I usually post a review if the program really sucks or is really great, and rarely post if its in the in between range. I figure if its a mediocre program, it may suit someone else and I'd hate to give it a bad review. On the other hand, some of my reviews have included suggestions to the developer to improve how the program functions or change program features. If you think that doing so is not something I should do, I'd like to suggest that developers often put out beta programs just to get feedback and often welcome it even if its negative.
