Hi,

Today we have been learning about free software. I learnt that free software does not only mean that it is free financially but that it is also free for anyone to access the information and change or alter it as they see fit.

Some software programmes include:- Gimp - similar to photoshop, Open Office - powerpoint etc., Ubuntu - computer operating system, Blender - 3D Animation, Inkscape - graphics.

Here is a video that demonstrates the use of free software:-


Stephen Fry on free software from DragonWeb on Vimeo.

I think the simplicity in which Stephen Fry discusses free software is very down to earth.
