Software Review: Whoosh! Down the Tubes... - Page 2

The only thing I could say negatively about my PC program is they could improve upon the permission levels and making them easier to understand. I'm moderately good at understanding the computer, but I had to read through a few times before it all clicked for me. Beyond that, it's a relatively easy thing to use right out of the gate and who could ask for more than that?

They still need to come out with a Mac version however, and that needs to happen soon. I'm using Windows Vista and any Mac owner friend has had very inconsistent picture files coming from me. Or not at all! This too, could be a Vista issue as those who have it know all about those! So as good as Tubes is, there is still room for a smidgen of improvement but nothing major. There's word out that a revised and improved version is about ready for release now, so they do listen.

Ah, and another nice thing is it's available in a free version which handles a gigabyte of storage. But for a reasonable fee you can get five, ten, or twenty gigs for $6, $11 or $21 respectively.

And no, I don't work for them. I just believe in endorsing something that works well. This works very well.

    Ginger-- I do work for Tubes, with their PR and marketing group. Thanks for writing about us.

    As for your permission question, the new release of Tubes went live this morning (Oct. 5). Part of the changes are to the permissioning system. Let us know if your concerns are addressed.

    Again, thanks!

    Doug - you're welcome. In this day of 'nothing works the way it should', it's nice to be able to pass along news that something actually does - and as well as Tubes does!
    Thanks for the heads up on the new release. You guys are fast. =)
