The Google Pack 4
Google released a new download manager program that will download and install a set of programs you choose from pack.google.com. Google’s goal is to make life easier to find and install clean programs when you purchase a new computer. The Google Pack will provide items from security to entertainment. On their website you can check the items you like and it will be added to a “shopping cart” and eventually all the items will be added to Google’s download manager (aka Google Updater) and will be installed. All the programs you download through the Google Pack will be the same exact prorgams one would find on the creator’s websites, there will be no Google Ads involved. Google also claimed that they are not paying or getting paid to create this set of programs.

Nice update of the site, I was expecting you to switch to WP sooner or later. Keep up the good work!
Wow, very nice update of the site. This “vistatheme” of yours is very impressive. Any chance you’d ever release it?
Jason, this theme was not made from scratch, but was actually made using combinations of multiple themes I found. It took hours and hours to modify it exactly to how it is right now. I do not wish to release the theme to the public because Skatter Tech will no longer look unique. There are plenty of open source themes available so I suggest that you look for something you like then spend a few hours modifying and photoshoping the theme to your needs.
i thought google pack was discontinued
