Tucows redesigned to offer solutions as well as software

A while back, Tucows was known as one of the internet's top sources for downloadable freeware and shareware. But if you kind of forgot about Tucows, what with Download.com, FileHippo, and hundreds of other download sites out there, you're probably not alone.

Well, this week Tucows launched a major new site design that highlight's a new focus: solutions. You can still find and download boatloads of great software from Tucows. But the web page now prominently features a solutions center with advice for everything from what software to use when setting up a blog or website to instructions on how to use BitTorrent.

There's also a social aspect to the new design. Registered users can vote articles up or down and popular articles are featured on the front page.

Tucows has been publishing these articles for a while now. In fact, many of them are written by Download Squad alum Jordan Running who left our humble blog earlier this year to become a resident expert over at Tucows. It's nice to see the site give these excellent tutorials and explanations a more prominent place on the home page.
