In search for the perfect theme, I have been to the end and back. And here's what I learned: There is no such thing as the perfect theme. Your taste will change, your needs will fluctuate over time, and eventually you will want another theme. What's great about free themes is how easy it is to download, upload and activate. That's it. It's 3 steps. And they are free. My recommendation will be to start with a free theme, build out your site, and then buy a theme. You will be less likely to change out your theme when shelling out $300 a pop, and the process will help to identify what elements and features you want available in the theme. Well, let's get to it: 10 Free Drupal Themes on the Web (in no order)
**Funny fact: The reason why most Drupal themes begin with "A" is because Drupal.org defaults and display's themes by their Title, beginning with A.

"The Magazeen theme is a cool and modern theme with a stylish colour scheme. This bold magazine 2-col-theme was designed with the main focus being on typography, grids and magazine-look. It was created especially for Smashing Magazine and its readers."

I was somewhat to disappointed to go on SnagIt's download page and find out the application was not supported for Mac OS X. However, I didn't have to go far to find Jing, created by the same company that brought you SnagIt, Techsmith.
And even better, Jing is free.
Techsmith launched Jing as a project back in July 2007, and it's no secret they might come out with a premium version. Currently, Jing uses screencast.com to host files and provides the user with 2GB of storage and 2GB of transfer sound. After capturing an image or video, the user can:
1) add text, arrows, or highlighted selected areas
2) instantly grab html code and imbed the image or video to their site
3) upload the file to screencast.com, flickr, ftp, or the user hard drive
Jing doesn't offer the same user functionality as SnagIt, and they explain this reason in the QA section on their website:
"...the key difference is about workflow. Jing is designed to be fast-visual communication shared with others in a variety of locations. Capture. Annotate. Share."
SnagIt 9 helps Microsoft users to capture, organize and share high-quality screen shots for presentations, blogs and documents. I just downloaded the newest version and I have become absolutely obsessed with this little gadget.
What’s the Obsession with SnagIt?
SnagIt! If you can see it, you can snag it. Here are just a few of the many different ways that make it easy to capture your screenshots.
Let me begin this post with two definitions
Galaxy - A galaxy is a massive, gravitationally bound system consisting of stars, an interstellar medium of gas and dust, and dark matter.
Light Year is the distance traveled by light in one year which is 5,878,625,373,183.61 miles
With the above two definitions in mind just read the below statement carefully and take few minutes to imagine what you read
Sometimes I look down at the time and think to myself, "It's already 2:00 ... where did the day go?" I came across this cool application called RescueTime on makeuseof.com. It's a time tracking application that "gives you a birds eye view of how you spend your time".
