Originally, I had some major complaints about DeskScribble, but as if they were reading my mind, a recent update solved nearly every issue I had.
Minimalism is the new way getting things done.Īlright, Boss, let’s get another Short List rolling.įirst up, let’s talk about interface, or rather the lack of one. Sure, it’s a notion that’s been around forever and a day, but with more people owning BlackBerry’s and iPhones than ever, almost everyone wants content to take front stage these days, and the people over at DeskScribble seem to understand this very well. When you first launch DeskScribble, you’ll notice how very little there is to it. It’s just a little tab at the top left of your screen that has some basic, but useful options: Pointer, Marker, Eraser, Color, and a slide that helps you choose the thickness of your marker pen. Just inside of that partial ring, are two other buttons that come in handy. One is a tidy little brush that wipes your whole “palette” clean, the other is the all too familiar export button. You know the one, made famous by iPhone Apps everywhere, the arrow that juts out of a little box? Yeah – You know what I’m talking about. Pretty much all of the controls are self explanatory. The pointer lets you use your mouse like normal, something new that was added (thanks guys!), and the Marker Pen well Scribbles, and so on and so on.

The color tab is nicely done as well, it will provide a drop down draw full of color choices, or you can select the last option and use the default Mac color palette chooser. There is a little nub that juts out from the rest of the interface that needs a little explanation, though if you just bought the App and pressed the buttons, you’d know right away what you did. There is a back and forward button for you, incase you screw up something like I usually do, but there are two tiny buttons that might not be so obvious. The hide button, which looks like an asterisk ‘*’, and a play button that will put you into presenter mode.
