Gizmo's Tech Support Alert

This site is operated by Ian "Gizmo" Richards with the able assistance of many volunteer site editors.

Gizmo is the editor of "Support Alert",  a  highly regarded monthly technical newsletter that is distributed to over 145,000 subscribers.

This site is an evolutionary development of an earlier site where Gizmo created and maintained a highly popular list of the "46 Best-ever Freeware Utilities."   Over time that list grew well beyond 46 and reached the point where it could not be maintained by one person. 

The current wiki-style site relies on the contribution of dozens of volunteer editors who edit and moderate suggestions from thousands of site visitors.  As a result the range of software covered is ever increasing and quality of the reviews ever improving.

In a real sense this site has become the Wikipedia® for Freeware.

Gizmo can be contacted using the site contact form.

Individual editors may be contacted by clicking on their names that appear on their review pages. Note only registered site users can contact editors but Gizmo can be contacted by anyone.
