Originally a X11 Window Manager.
Extremely powerful for it had a slit. Now it's dead.
Linux users have now tooken it's soucecode and created fluxbox, which is extremely good and much better than BB4Win. Fluxbox DEVELOPMENT VERSION offers Taskbar, and Icon Bar, not needed. As well as a more customizable taskbar and fbdesk for icons. Plus the remarkable tabbing engine, allowing you to group your windows automatically and manually.
Window users can now sort of enjoy Blackbox on Windows as a shell replacement called BB4Win. You can still enjoy your internet explorer by using it instead of explorer for a filemanager. BB4Win isn't as good for sloppy focusing and it doesn't allow you to have tabs, or to shrink the taskbar to as tiny as you want it to, but it's still a good blackbox shell for windows and a good replace of Explorer.

I decided to stop using Windows because BB4Win wasn't as good as my Fluxbox v9.10 for Linux. I just kill explorer when I load up Windows and just use the task manager to load up my very addicticting games that do not have a Linux Port and is too slow for emulating.

I love using "kig" for help on my geometry homework and "flashkard" for help memorizing. Except I have to load up kdeinit because I'm only using fluxbox.

Software that has a source code available to the public.
Giving the public the ability to modify, improve, and fix the program itself. Allowing the creator of the program to not have to find a way to fix the program himself and allowing more patches and improvements to the software.
Also allowing the public to be able to port the program onto other operating systems, so that dual-booters who can program will make a windows version of an awesome GNU/Linux/BSD/Solaris program.

Used for online chatting when you wished that you didn't ask a question, or that a person you're talking to didn't say something.

A gtk+2.0 web browser mainly used for the Gnome Desktop Environment. Using the mozilla engine.
It's more faster at loading up and lightweight compared to Firefox. Also giving a better tabbing engine, allowing you to force new windows into new tabs and allowing you to move them. Also allowing the ability to make your own custom search engines without having to download anything except for maybe a picture.
Giving almost the same power as Firefox, Galeon's only flaw is with it's pop-up blocker. It's not as smart as the Firefox blocker, because Galeon blocks up SOME requested pop-ups and it takes awhile to enable pop-ups. which I hate.
Sorry folks, but it's for Linux!

Firefox kept loading up new windows and it kept using up ram. I can't program C, so I decided to just use Galeon because Epiphany is like Internet Explorer, not customizable.
