If you’re tired of big bloated expensive software running on your computer, take a look at TinyApps where “small is beautiful.” The site’s been around for a few years and offers numerous resources for software for internet, text, graphics, files, Palm, OSX and Windows. What’s a tiny app? “As defined by this website, a tiny app (application) is software weighing 1.44mb or less.” Almost all the programs listed on the site are free. Miles Wolbe, an I.T. consultant in Maui, is the creator. We love that he has a Green Award for software which “doesn’t require installation, doesn’t write to the registry, and does not create or modify files outside of its own directory.” Not just that, but he’s also environmentally-conscious in real life. His answer to “what is the single most helpful thing I can do for myself, my fellow beings, and the planet?” Go vegan.
