A couple of months ago we made a decision to abandon one of our "side-kick brands", Filepedia.com in order to provide a smoother user experience for our users. Filepedia and its predecessor, Dawnload.net, have been around since 2001 and they've provided software downloads from areas that AfterDawn doesn't focus on, such as browsers, email clients, firewalls, etc.
The "two sites offering software downloads" setup has proven to be slightly complex for some of our users which is why we felt that by merging the two software sections, we could provide a better user experience and a much more harmonized "brand" for the software section.
As a result of this merger, AfterDawn's software section grows significantly and now boasts more than 1,000 hand-picked software downloads with user reviews, screenshots, etc. All user accounts, software notification subscriptions, RSS feeds, etc have been moved from Filepedia to AfterDawn, so users can manage their settings and notifications via AfterDawn's control panel.
You can find our software section here:
