Dabble DB

Dabble DB was a web application written using the Seaside web framework which allows users to create database applications using a web browser. A Dabble DB application can import data and export data in a variety of formats. Unlike most traditional relational database systems, it uses a point-and-click interface rather than relying on programming. The system is forgiving of data type issues when importing or entering data.

On June 10, 2010, Dabble DB announced[1] that their parent company, Smallthought Systems, had been acquired by Twitter.[2]

On March 17, 2011, Dabble DB announced[3] that the Dabble DB service would be shut down on May 18, 2011.

On March 31, Morningstar ran a story about Dabble DB users being thrown a lifeline.[4]
