I created this one for one of my talks at internal ToastMaster club at KMS Technology Vietnam. We're in software development business and many times we lost our focus on what we need to do to produce software. I hope this can raise the awareness of us about producing a working software as an end result. The beauty is that sometimes we don't even need to program the software. We can leverage quite a few free tools available to solve almost all of our problems.

1. 0$ spending for
software?

2. The question is: How much do
you need to spend for software?

3. Freeware is now much more
than what you basically need.

4. My experience on this

11. And even more than productivity

12. What does this imply
to software
development people
like us?

13. For whatever we do to produce
software (for company or for our
clients), the result software
needs to be meaningful
and useful to the end users.

14. Remember, it doesn't need to be
complicated / expensive
to be meaningful and
useful. The keyword is that
working software.

15. Sometimes, we don't even
need to produce software.
Leveraging one of the existing free
tools on the market can solve many of
the business problems. Be aware and
be effective.

16. Conclusions
Free software can amazingly solve our daily
problems and impact to our status quo.
Software doesn't need to be complicated,
expensive nowadays.
It needs to be meaningful, useful and it
needs to be a working software.
