GridIron Flow Update
There’s finally some news out about GridIron’s project-tracking application, Flow. It seems like it was only yesterday that I was signing up for the beta.
And, of course, by yesterday I mean last year. Like, summer.
If you’re unfamiliar, Flow aims to track all changes — every little thing you do in any application — within a project. So if you’ve got a Final Cut Pro project that has a Motion file that contains the third version of a Photoshop file, Flow will track all versions of every file, project, etc that you’ve included. Automatically. Sounds pretty amazing, right?
So what’s been going on since their last update? Well, it’s hard to say. They appear to have made a cartoon. Which sort of demonstrates what the app can do. And they’ve announced a release date — for the beta. So that’s something. But that’s not coming until February 18th.
There is an entry at GridIron’s new blog that details their own excitement for the application. I don’t doubt their dedication, or their resolve to make Flow as good as possible before release, if for no other reason than the many delays it has suffered. It’s just frustrating having to wait another month to try it out.
Then again, it’s only a month this time. And at least there’s a definitive date of release. It’s not like there’s anything else like it, either.
February 18th can’t come soon enough.
