Greetings, colleagues,

Here's a little conundrum for this slow time:

A colleague is currently developing a "THING" that will help students
learn idioms. It works on a computer. It is interactive and is
multi-media based. It will be stored on a CD-ROM. What shall the
colleague call this thing? Is it software or is it a program?
Dictionaries seem to make no distinction.

(Later on, when this colleague is up for tenure, what kind of
publication would this be called?)

Thanks in advance for what I hope will be an interesting discussion.
