Wow, we are already 24th of august and I still haven’t communicated on the new features that went live on allmyapps… on August 8th, shame on me! I hope this post will repair this mistake and help you be up-to-date with what’s going on at allmyapps.
First of all, let me thank you for all the attention that allmyapps got lately. As our number of installations shows, our number of users has largely increased during the last month. Indeed, you installed more than 8.000 applications through allmyapps during the last month! We are really glad that you appreciated our last release with the ability the build list of applications… Since then, we added a whole bunch of new features, including some of the most asked features! Here is a little summary of the most important features that got included in our last release:
You can now share your application list thanks to a “Share this” button located on the top right of your list:

You can just share its URL as it now has its own public URL (see for example my application list) but you can also share it by email:

You can even share your application list via a widget on your website or blog:
Besides the list sharing capabilities, we also added new package repositories (canonical repository, google repository and medibuntu repository to name them). So, you can now install non Open Source but popular applications such as Google Earth, Picasa, Skype as well as codecs from the the medibuntu repository directly from allmyapps.
Last but not least, we added a statistics module from which you can which are the most popular applications on allmyapps. You can see statistics the way you like: by day, by week, by month… This way you can keep track in real time of the most popular applications on allmyapps.
Of course, we also fixed a lot of issues you reported to us and notably resolved the issue you were facing with Firefox 3.5. We basically removed the strict user agent control, this way, anybody is now able to install packages from allmyapps provided the apturl handler is registered correctly in his web browser.
That’s pretty much all for this release, we hope you’ll like it and will continue to tell us what you think about it! And if you know people who could be interested by allmyapps, please spread the word
Thanks a lot for your support!
