You can also choose to ignore updates for any app. This menu shows the name of the developer of the app, the quantity of Mac Informer users and you have a possibility to rate it. Rating is very helpful for other users, so it is advisable.
Mac Informer's newest version, 0,3, has seen some improvements over the last version. Perhaps the most noteworthy of all the changes is the addition of Facebook support. Both the interface and the program have been optimized, and a few bugs here and there were solved.
