AppFresh: All-in-One Software Update Replacement
AppFresh is a utility that keeps all applications on your Mac up to date by checking the internet for new releases and making downloading and installing them a breeze. It covers software updates from Apple and third parties and can be used as a replacement for Apple’s own Software Update application to provide one central place to make sure you’re up to date.
Even though all of these features may exude “must-have app,” it’s still very much a work in progress. It’s only a preview for now, not yet in beta. For safety reasons, it won’t overwrite your applications but extract downloaded updates to your desktop. Users have also reported crashes while updating Saft for Safari. Despite these downsides this app looks very promising and may very well become a staple application in the future.
AppFresh is available as a free download from Metaquark.
I like the icon, but I probably won’t use it.
How does this compare with the app update widget, that was previously posted on this site?
That’s exactly the question that I was asking: How does this stack up against App Update? Since that post was only 5 days ago you should reference some sort of comparison.
Great tool, especially if you have so many apps installed like me.

This is cool. checking it out
This is really cool! I have too many apps in my application folder and this makes updating them so much easier..
