So it looks like despite this also being a still media manipulator tool, Cacoo is /very/ different from the tool I used, Gimp. Overall from what I saw in your screencast I get the idea that this is specialized for making presentations and I can see where you might get the description of 'business oriented'. Given my needs in life I can't say that I'd be likely to want to use this program and I'll definitely be sticking with Gimp.
Erika, I had never heard of this particular which is what attracted me to wanting t watch your critique. I have to agree with you that there isn't much need of a program like this if you are savvy with slides/powerpoint and other existing applications that make easy diagrams,flow charts, etc. The free version seems to limit you quite a bit, which is a big downfall. Having the ability to create similar types of diagrams in other programs I already have it doesn't seem likely I would want to pay for something like this. I am however intrigued to look into it a bit further to see if there is something I am missing. :)Lauren
