CNET TechTracker Mac Public Beta
CNET TechTracker can check your software and alert you about updates. Useful when you decide to conduct a maintenance session. You need a CNET userid, which I already had, to download and install the software. There is a Windows version.
I apear to need 18 updates. While I usually wait until the next time I use an app to allow its auto-update to start teh download, it can get in the way if I am at an event, teaching someone or if a bright idea strikes me about inserting something during the 5-minute break in the middle of a lecture. Its nice if software simply behaves then!
