My Online Computer Software Store

Sunday, April 13th, 2008

I didn't know I had an online computer software store until now, after I put in some time to check latest features from Chitika. The concept of the advertising scheme is very innovative, although I don't think I'll benefit much from the program.

I also added a ShopCloud to my sidebar. If you are interesting in any kind of computer software, do have a look!

For this feature, I find that it is still quite buggy. Have you ever seen a black iPod that looks like a camera?
