Stefan FinteaSoftpedia editor profile and review archive

personal motto:

"Water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend! - Bruce Lee"

Back when I first got my hands on a computer (remember Sinclair ZX Spectrum?), most programs didn't target the average user, but a lot of things changed since then and now the amount of applications under active development is absolutely overwhelming.

Since a computer is not of much use without the right tools, I've always considered my job at Softpedia to be a great way for me to help people find the program they need in an ocean of computer software.

As time passes by, new challenges arise: since the old days I've always done my best to make sure we're listing the latest updates (and, of course, those listings have to be 100% accurate), but it's time to give something back, so now I'm also promoting those apps which stand out from the crowd, making Softpedia the one and only IT encyclopedia with bookmarks to all the software goodies.
