This article was posted in June 2006. How much innovation has happened since then?
I ask because I've been throwing together a toy django app that lets users manage arbitrary data using a filing cabinet metaphor because I figured some users might find the idea familiar. I'd love to build a product that steals some market share from spreadsheets.
Since launching, Dabble has added stuff for mapping and creating forms so other people can sanely add data to your database in a way you control, among other things. Certainly Avi Bryant et al have not let DabbleDB rot on the vine.
The best thing about Dabble is its implementation knowingly breaks all the rules about how scalability ought to work.
