Lifehacker pointed me to a cool website this morning that has kind-of been the topic to my last few posts about the Mac. But the website is AlternativeTo.net. It really reminds me of IdeaJam the way it's laid out and operates. But the object of the site is to give alternatives to common software.

AlternativeTo is a new approach to finding good software. Tell us what application you want to replace and we give you suggestions on great alternatives! Instead of listing thousands of more or less crappy applications in a category, we make each application into a category. Think of it like forever evolving blog posts about good alternatives to the software that you're not satisfied with. And the "blog posts" are generated by you through suggestions, comments and votes.

So, go check it out, it's pretty cool.
