Hunting for books, games and DVDs

A suite of freeware apps from JAres helps you organize and store information about your books, games and DVDs. Book Hunter, Game Hunter and DVD Hunter are still at version 0.8.6, but so far they look to have lots of potential. The interfaces are clean and easy to use.

Opening up the information area for an item is daunting until you realize that all those spaces can be filled automatically by the program. I punched in The Godfather, hit Autocomplete, and DVD Hunter did the rest — including the placement of an image from the DVD cover.

We’ll definitely be keeping an eye on these apps, and will likely usher them into the thriftmac collection when they make it to a full version 1.
