THUMBS UP/THUMBS DOWN
AWARDS AND OTHERWISE TO SHAREWARE DISTRIBUTORS
████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████
Once in a while you spot a shareware vendor, author, computer
club or BBS who adds a twist of value, education or just plain
old fashioned service and want to pass along an "attaboy" for a
job well done. Other times you might want to extend a thumbs
down. Do you have a favorite or not so favorite disk vendor,
product or author? Drop us a line!
In this edition of SMS I want to pass along commendations to
a select group of shareware movers and shakers who deserve a
thumbs up for a job well done!
Category: BEST shareware industry magazine
Other shareware magazines may be newer or have more advertising,
but PC Shareware Magazine from Britain is still the biggest and
best! With more detailed product reviews, interviews with
authors, customer tutorials and "inside information," PC
Shareware Magazine is clearly the best shareware magazine
in the industry.
Category: fascinating new products for authors
All are available from the SMS GOODIES section of this package...
The Shareware Installation System. Aimed at unifying all
shareware installations into a common SMALL installation routine
with over 20 programming commands, this is one of the most
original and well thought out shareware programs on the market
for authors. The SMALL machine code size and ultimate
customization only adds icing on the cake.
The Shareware Book from Robert Schenot - a fascinating
"whole earth" compendium of shareware tricks, tips and marketing
footnotes.
Writer's Dream and the Multimedia Workshop from Jeff Napier
of Another Company. Simple, elegant tools which could create new
shareware opportunities for authors.
Category: best industry event
The Summer Shareware Seminar, hosted by Public Brand Software,
the ASP and industry emcee Bob Ostrander. The ultimate annual
event which defines the shareware industry for vendors and
authors alike. Held in June in Indianapolis, Indiana, this is
the place to be if you want to quadruple your income from
shareware.
Category: most interesting emerging news item.
The new "STAR" shareware industry trade organization currently
forming under the auspices of Diana Gruber and Scott Miller. If
the flexible and productive goals of the group are met, this
could be an exceptional addition to the shareware industry
for authors, users and vendors alike. Everyone knows the Diana
is OUTSPOKEN. Now she and Scott are DOING something about it.
