Simplicity is always better

Back to buisiness. (pun intended)

Here is an itty, bitty Mac app that won a Apple design award.

How?

in a word, Simplicity and user experience.

This proves that it's not just web apps that need to work on user experience. All software applications do.

Lineform is easier to use than Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator, more powerful than either of those, allows users to be more productive, has zero learning curve, and it is so lightweight that it launches in under 1 second.

it uses a line of text underneath the tools to explain what the object is, what is going on, and what key options are availible at that instant. It's actually quite nice, and since it boasts similar features to photoshop or illustrator, why wouldn't anyone use it?

fourth post today huh?
