Bits du Jour has just announced this week’s schedule of discounted software. Leading the list is IdeaMason, a rather unusual software for writers, available on Monday only for a 43-percent discounted price of $39.34.
I descirbed my first impressions about IdeaMason before, when it was previously offered by Bits du Jour last May. Read my review.
It’s not the easiest program to master. In fact, I’m still struggling with it myself. But it’s power is so enticing that I’m still intrigued — enough so that I’m downloading a second copy for my newly purchased desktop computer in Manila. This machine has a 22-inch screen, a big plus for IdeaMason, which operates with multiple windows open simultaneously.
As it happens, I’ve also installed Microsoft Office 2007 on this computer and am finally encountering the much-discussed “ribbon.” I don’t yet know quite what to make of it myself. Some users love it; others despise it. On Thursday, Bits du Jour will offer a huge discount on a pair of programs that will replace the ribbon with the classic Word and Excel menu structure from Office 2003. If you hate the ribbon, here’s your chance to ditch it!.
