I’m re-installing Windows on my Desktop today following a sudden slowdown in performance coupled with the fact it’s been at least three years since a good hard drive cleansing. I’ve already put my most important files on a memory stick and everything’s automatically backed-up to Carbonite, but I still have to worry about getting all my programs back. It’s not a long list, seeing as I only use my computer for school stuff and photo editing. Here’s my list, in no particular order:
- Office suit
- Photoshop
- Firefox
- Flickr Uploader
- iTunes
- Adobe Acrobat Reader
- Carbonite
- Ad Aware
- RAID (though technically it’s a driver, right?)
What programs can you not do without?

Wow, this is a great idea for a blog meme. I use:
Office Professional
Lightroom
Photoshop
Living Cookbook
Calorie King
Hormonal Forecaster
Google Earth
I think it’s already becoming a meme! I came across it, and have written my list here: http://yarn-dancer.blogspot.com/2009/03/software-hitlist.html
