So far, so good. BlueCrab used to be my favorite site downloader, but it's overly complicated and lately it hasn't worked very well for me. Also, I hate that you can't download again without closing your window and opening a new one. SiteSucker works, but it's too simplistic and looks ugly. SiteCrawler is simple to use, has a clean interface and just works.
This ePub reader is a joke, right? I mean, this has to be one of the worst programs I've ever used in OS X. Why can't Apple make an OS X version of the iBook app?
This is more of an off-the-cuff snap review since I only used it for five minutes. But right off the bat I didn't like WebStorm because it is too Windows-like. It's quite ugly, with a lot of unattractive little icons, and closing a window quits the program. If I were a PC user and I had been using this for a while on a PC I might like it since it looks like it has a lot of features. But I'm sticking with BBEdit 9.6 for now (BBEdit 10 sucks).
In order to get all the feature goodness that SnapzProX comes with, you have to let it load as a startup app. If you don't load it this way and, say, click on the icon in the applications folder, not all of the features work. The problem for me is (it's more of an annoyance, really) is that loading at startup is so S-L-O-W. I'd say it adds at least a minute to my startup, if not more. You'll think you're finished starting up, but nothing works. Then the SnapzPro splash screen comes up. And stays up. This is pretty 1990, so I hope someday they'll update the way the program works so it will load faster. Everything else about the app is great. It's definitely "pro" quality, and I use it almost every day.
