Tooble

Jesse, Forest Praveen and Steve are at the World Wide Developer Conference, absorbing Apple framework knowledge like over-enthusiastic sponges. We were even third -in line for the Apple Keynote!

The tooble team has been working tirelessly to bring tooble to the PC, and now we can say we’ve finally done it. Starting today tooble for windows will be available as a free public beta as it enters the testing phase. We’ve managed to take all the power, speed, and ease of tooble for Mac, and translate it beautifully for the PC. Now regardless of the computer you’re on, downloading YouTube videos is just a few clicks away.

Like tooble for Mac, tooble for windows is free, and has all the features you know and love. With the ability to browse all of YouTube from within one window, you can search, browse YouTube’s categories, or enter in a URL to find any video you like. From there, it only takes two clicks to download your videos to play in iTunes, on your iPod, or just about anywhere you want.

The tooble for windows public beta is available to anyone who wants to use tooble as beta software. We’ve worked hard, but like all software we’ll need beta testers to help hammer out the last few bugs. The beta is a full working copy of tooble, and all you have to do now is head over to our download center to give it a try and tell us what you think. Download end enjoy.

Only sixty days after tooble’s debut, we’ve hit our hundred thousandth download! As you may guess this exceeds anything any of us expected, but we’re proud to announce tooble’s success and we’d like to thank all of the users who supported us, gave tooble a try, or came out to see us at MacWorld; you guys are great and we’re going to make some great software for you.
