Tips & Downloads for Getting Things Done
Lifehacker is published by Gawker Media, a far-flung team of folks also responsible for Gizmodo, Fleshbot, Defamer, Jalopnik, Wonkette, Gridskipper and Gawker.
Lifehacker is an award-winning daily blog that features tips, shortcuts, and downloads that help you get things done smarter and more efficiently. Lifehacker launched in January 2005, and now ranks as one of the top-linked blogs on the internet according to Technorati. Since its inception, Lifehacker has been named Best Blog by Wired, won several Bloggies, and found its way onto many best-of lists by the likes of TIME, Slate, and many more. Lifehacker's also been mentioned in The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, O, The Oprah Magazine and PC Magazine as well as other mainstream press outlets. Lifehacker has been interviewed by CNBC, NPR, and several other radio and television shows.
In addition to publishing over 20 tips per day, the Lifehacker editorial team develops an exclusive line of productivity software applications called Lifehacker Code, which we invite you to download and try out for free. In late 2006, Wiley and Sons published our first book, Lifehacker: 88 Tech Tricks to Turbocharge Your Day, authored by Gina Trapani, Lifehacker's founding editor. The second edition of the book, Upgrade Your Life, was realeased in March 2008.

Lifehacker's Downloads
Lifehacker features downloads of all kinds every day. However, they bundled all the best free downloads for new computer owners, re-installers, would-be geeks, or anyone who wants to save time installing the best stuff out there. This is the 2009 Lifehacker Pack for Windows computers.
The idea is the same as when they first introduced the Lifehacker Pack more than three years ago - a single, handy list that they think improves the computer lives of Windows users. Lifehacker is also providing a utility to download some or all of these applications at once - more on that after the list.
You can head directly to each application's download page from the [Download] links following their write-ups, and see what Lifehacker originally wrote about them at the [LH Post] link. If there's a portable version of an application that you can run off a thumb drive and/or test out without installing, we've linked to that at [Portable], or added a "+Portable" to the main download link.
Onto the list!
