Database Dream:

Squirl

In response to an earlier post, I got a note from one Kristina Dahl, part of the team behind Squirl, a social networking site for collectors.

Squirl comes at a fortunate time for me as I’ve been on the lookout for a database program to catalogue my art collection (really a pretentious way of saying a half dozen prints and some pottery) and most programs I’ve found are either Windows only or aimed at the yacht club market and hence, cost about $800. According to Ms. Dahl, the art collection template, is taggable and has the fields I’m looking for.

As soon as I can get my staff photographer to come over and shoot each piece, I’m going to give Squirl a try.
