Code::Blocks: Bringing Free Software Into a Windows 7 World

Unfortunately, about 90% of the world's computers still run Windows. However, an undeniable reality is that free software is becoming more and more popular. There are several reasons for this:

• Free software is cheaper. (e.g. free)
• Free software is more secure because more people can see and fix the source code.
• Free software gets updated more frequently.

I work in an environment that is dominated by Windows. Every computer runs Windows XP. However, I have seen more free software begin to creep into my work environment such as:

• GIMP
• Firefox
• Inkscape

Today, I made a short Youtube tutorial showing how to install and configure my favorite C++ Intergrated Developemt Environment, Code::Blocks, on Windows 7. Enjoy!
