Google Maps PowerPC Mac Replacement - eMaps
eMaps is a much faster map service for PowerPC Macs. It is basically Google Maps coded for PowerPC so it runs much smoother and takes a lot less time to load. Which is a much more enjoyable experience than using normal Google Maps on a PPC Mac. It's also only about 500kb.

Libre Office PPC Mac
Libre Office is similar to Open Office, Microsoft Office, and Apple works. BUT Libre Office is free, as is open office. But Libre office is more user friendly than Open Office and provides a very familiar experience to common office applications.
David - iBook Guy
Youtube [ Here ]
Website [ Here ]
This is David, other wise know as the iBook guy. I first found out about David when I got my Powerbook G4 and need to know how to optimize it, and software to get for it since it was so old. Luckily David already had many helpful videos posted on his Youtube channel to help me along the way and inform me about how it all works while doing it. I owe a lot of credit to him, and encourage everyone to check out his youtube and personal website.
Also here's one of his videos that I think everyone should see:

Anti-Virus on PowerPC Mac?
Anti-Virus
Every computer needs to be safe right? But your in a special position you have a PPC Mac, which is pretty old. Not to say it can't get viruses buttttttttttttttttt
Most viruses are caught from web surfing now. And more than 50% is coded for Windows, and a good percent is in Flash and Java. 2 things that your PowerPC Mac already has blocked / can't run.
Your PPC Mac needs all the power it can get, and Anti-Virus programs do take away from some of the power. If I were you I wouldn't install an anti-virus on my PPC Mac. Especially one with 1gb of Ram.
There's not a huge market for infected PPC Macs so I wouldn't worry, unless your doing some bad stuff in which case you should get caught :p
Runescape switching to HTML5
SO as I said in a previous post : HERE : HTML5 Is going to breathe new life into PowerPC it is going to be the death of Java and Flash, which are the 2 biggest oppressors of the PowerPC.
^^^ As you can see in the picture above ^^^ (Click to enlarge) one of the most popular browser based MMO's Runescape is switching from Java to Html5. For Runescape this improves EVERYTHING the graphics are better, it runs better on EVERYTHING, it's safer. Good things all over the place.
Not to say your PowerPC Mac will be able to rock new Html5 Runescape in 1080p on maxed out settings, but it will most likely be able to run it, which has previously not been possible / not worth doing.
HTML5 FTW
