Ana MarculescuSoftpedia editor profile and review archive

personal motto:

"“I’m a word freak. I like words. I’ve always compared writing to music. That’s the way I feel about good paragraphs. When it really works, it’s like music.” - Hunter S. Thompson"

I exchanged American literature, culture and politics for Windows software reviews and it proved to be a more than an interesting journey in the world of technology. I love analyzing the way developers bring out their ideas to life and highlighting the key features of their creations.

I’m currently testing, probing, questioning and writing about every software program that gets on my hands.

When not reviewing, you can find me reading like a maniac (my eyes got adapted to darkness too), cooking (love trying new recipes), skiing in the winter, swimming in the summer, running, riding my bike, and travelling to new places (albeit some of them are in Wonderland).

All of the above could not have been accomplished without the help of my special, dearest and best friend, music.
