Software usage tracker, download site and wiki all in one
« on: February 07, 2009, 10:25:50 AM »
Check this out: http://wakoopa.com/

This download site features a wiki-based system where you can edit the program information pages directly. You can also sign up to track your software and website usage. Wakoopa will then customize its download site to fit your needs. Cool and creepy!

Example:

You can set your privacy settings to 'Private'. I see your point though. ;)

It's basically Last.fm for apps, which brings up the same privacy issue: do I want everyone to be able to see my habits?

I've used some similar apps like this before, and they are pretty entertaining at first. But after a week or so they lose their appeal.

I just discovered that you're absolutely right about that. :D
