best way to keep informed and get your PD-software nicely organized and
documented is to join your local or a national users-group, like the one
in Boston, Berkeley, NY, DC, ... just to name a few good ones ...

the time spent on FTPing and downloading should be worth more to you than
the cost of membership and club-disks ....  mine is, anyway ...

BTW, regarding the recent comments on how worthless MacWorld, MacUser, etc
really are, the newsletters and other publications available from user-groups
are really worth considering as substitute-reading ...
