[...] Fallon’s analysis on the buzz around their Skimmer tool after the first 2 weeks [...]
Skimmer is pretty good but it still has some bugs to work out hence it being in beta. Like I can’t sign into my youtube because I sign in using my Google account normally. Plus sometimes it gets stuck when processing making my profile picture smaller. But I like it, it’s a very elegant app. One fantastic addition would be the integration of a url shortener like Bitly. Plus I can’t find the user forums on Skimmer?
Thanks.
