Early adopters

Have a new experience of early adoption testing, provided to you by GOTD and Paragon Software!

Please take it easy as we are not going to involve you in beta testing in any way. Though the product we are about to offer is still in development, it is one step away from being available to general public. It is the point when developers know that everything works, but they still want to be absolutely sure that they have not missed anything. Thus they need non-developers’/users’ look. So it is nearly half good as any given giveaway.

Why on GOTD and what are your benefits?

According to the rules a person must be approved by Paragon Software team to become early adopter. Here you do not have to apply to be a part of Paragon’s Early Adopter Program (EAP) and wait to be invited while you may not be.

Considering not many of you may be interested in this very limited component, it is featured on GOTD site as the second giveaway.

Please leave your feedback about the program on the GOTD download page. We would also appreciate it if you let us know what you think of this initiative in general here.

Regards,
GOTD team

WinX DVD Ripper and something for Mac OS users

Hi everybody!

Boy, we’ve got news for you! Digiarty Software is going to post WinX DVD Ripper again on Saturday (November 13).

Idea contest winners list at hand

All of you are familiar with Idea Informer partner program on Giveaway of the Day and most of you have participated in idea contests once at least. It usually takes developers a couple of days (give or take) to decide whose idea appeals to them most of all. Sometimes they need to pick up more than one suggestion. But how do you know whether you are one of those lucky users?

From now on you can see a new table added to Giveaway of the Day sidebar. This item is intended to reveal the list of the visitors that were rewarded and is going to be updated as soon as we get winners’ nicknames from the Developer.

Moreover the table has two more tabs enabling you to watch how the story goes at the moment, i.e. who leads in total number of ideas (Quantity) and whose ideas are currently popular among the users (Quality).

We hope you’ll find your name in the top! ;)

Best regards,
GOTD team
