Appnr Makes Finding and Installing Ubuntu Apps a Breeze [Ubuntu]

Free Ubuntu app search site Appnr is a great way to find and install a huge range of applications and tools, especially for Linux newcomers. Faster and more explanatory than the default Synaptic installer, more expansive and up-to-date than the "Add/Remove Programs" tool, Appnr uses Ubuntu's apt-url handler to make it simple: Click "Install" next to any program, and your system takes care of the rest. I could only ask for results-as-you-type searching; otherwise, it's a great tool for searching and browsing what's available in the world of Ubuntu Linux. Appnr is free, doesn't require a sign-up.
