GreenScape

GreenScape is a handy personal information manager that helps you keep all your online stuff organized. Whether it’s emails, photos, feeds, calendars, or contacts, this software can bring everything together from different service providers.

Simple Layout for Easy Access

The layout of GreenScape is pretty straightforward. It kind of looks like a mix between an Internet browser and the Windows XP Explorer. Imagine two explorers smashed together! You can find your photos, emails, and documents in the 'My Items' menu while browsing options like an integrated browser pop up from the 'View' drop-down panel.

Aiming to Be Your Go-To Data Manager

GreenScape's goal is to serve as a complete data manager for everyone. It wants to run your emails, websites, photos, documents, and more all in one window with everything organized across different tabs. Sounds good in theory, right? Having your work segmented into tabs could definitely make things easier.

Crowded Tabs Can Be a Hassle

But here’s the catch: if you have tons of files to juggle on your PC every day, cramming all those resources into tabs might just clutter things up more than help you out.

A Useful Tool for Casual Users

If you don’t use your computer daily or have loads of files to manage, then this 'universal' Windows Explorer might be just what you need!

A Work in Progress

However, GreenScape feels like just a skeleton version of what a full-featured program should be. Some features are hit or miss—some don’t even work right—and crashes happen quite often.

Limited Configuration Options

The settings aren’t super extensive either. You can use a proxy connection if you want and set some hotkeys. Plus, you can save your email account database in formats like Apache Derby format or XML and SQL scripts.

A Cautionary Tale for Users

If you're looking for something solid for daily use, GreenScape may not be the best choice right now. But if you're curious about how great design ideas can go south because of bugs and poor optimization issues, then check out This link!
