To more efficiently install all the usual goodies —Firefox, LibreOffice, VLC
Media Player, Gimp, Dropbox, AVG Free and Skype, to name a few—I turn to the
first tool, Ninite (http://ninite.com), a utility that automates the process of
downloading and installing software.
To use Ninite, simply visit the site, choose the applications you want to install, and download and run the Ninite installer.
A real time saver, Ninite spares you the trouble of hitting the Next button again and again on different installers, and automatically rejects offers to install toolbars and other junk programs.
A Ninite installer always gets the latest version of the applications you choose, no matter when you downloaded it. To update installed software, simply run the Ninite installer again.
Software choices are fairly extensive, with support for four popular browsers, nine messaging clients, 15 multimedia programs (including iTunes, Winamp and VLC), seven runtimes and plug-ins (including Flash), seven imaging applications, eight office productivity packages (including MS Office, OpenOffice and LibreOffice), seven anti-virus and anti-spyware programs and more than 30 other utilities.
