Downloadpedia is a web-based, free content software encyclopedia project. Downloadpedia is written collaboratively by volunteers from all around the world. Its articles can be edited by anyone with access to the Internet.

The website claimed to be a software encyclopedia has currently 3 categories for organizing softwares,  Windows, Mac and Linux. These list popular softwares under each categories. The site is quite new and hence there aren’t many entries, but as it suggests anyone is free to join and write articles.
