I’ve seriously got four big, long posts, saved as drafts because the ideas aren’t fully fleshed out in them. Sorry about that. Today I realized, the point here isn’t to spring my brilliant fully-formed ideas out into the world; it’s to help me work through them, and perhaps talk to some like-minded people who will smack me when my ideas are silly.
I have been really intrigued by the ideas explored by Dabble ever since I stumbled upon this blog, months ago. (One of my stored draft posts also mentions Seaside, another fantastically interesting bit of technology from the creators of Dabble.) I actually spent several weeks, back and forth on the bus to work, hashing out a design for an application much like it — which, for various reasons, I never got around to implementing. I look forward to it existing without having to do the work of implementing it.
