A absurd work of art. Review on Sensiva

Review Sensiva for Windows Runs on Windows 95/98/NT 4.0/2000 People make software and then …people make software. Why? Who knows… About sensiva: Sensiva is a software that allows you to ‘draw’ on the screen to execute commonly used actions and applications. All you have to do is draw (by right clicking and dragging ) anywhere on the screen a symbol related to a particular action and Viola! Magic (well almost). But frankly who would want to use it. If you are smart enough to remember the symbols of each action then you could remember the program shortcuts! And programs can be launched from the desktop, or the toolbar. Its sheer irony and I cannot even make out the target audience. Beginners? For God’s sake, they are running windows after all, and while not perfect, can perform all these tasks pretty well. Remember the right click? Adding symbols is a little too complex for the average user to figure out for himself .

Advanced users, don’t even bother to install it. The program ran perfectly on all native windows applications. You don’t have to be exactly precise in your drawing. The program will recognize symbols with a small margin of error. You can add you your own symbols for specific actions.(Go ahead and try). The interface looks pretty cool. If you find a program that doesnot work with Sensiva you can try searching for a related plug-in at the website available for free download.

I don’t recommend it because it is a pretty pointless program. They did it well though. But wasted effort. If you are a beginner at computers, try it out. You may even like it. Me? I don’t (and will never) use it. Period.
