    blist DEMO 08 Launch Video

    5 minute video of Blist - the "database for the rest of us" created by blist blog » Blog Archive » blist DEMO 08 Launch VideoKevin Merritt's Seattle startup.

    Still seems like it looks very complex. I also am repulsed (is that too strong a word) by the "database is a spreadsheet" metaphor. Also not that this is a Rich Application - not a web site. I think that's a mistake as well.

      I am just shocked. The "world's easiest database" looks pretty complicated to me. It looks like it has some good functionality, but, from a usability perspective, it looks about a wash with Access to me. The database as a spreadsheet metaphor doesn't bother me as much, but the way it's implemented seems clunky.

      I think there is plenty of room to improve upon Access, but this isn't it.
