Hi and welcome to Quartizer Projects.

We're working on a more attractive site design but in the meantime, you're invited to download The Qube and give it a spin.

The Qube is a fork of Qwitter, a popular program pioneered by Christopher Toth. It was originally created as a private project to give its authors greater user interface flexibility, but gained popularity since Qwitter's development ceased in September 2011.

Qwitter was originally designed as a client for the Twitter microblogging service, but later evolved into a revolutionary application, bringing the speech and sound-based navigation paradigm it popularized on the Twitter platform to several other services. Its primary advantage is that you can access these services without ever having to open up another window: you never need to leave the application you are working in.

The Qube intends to maintain this philosophy, building upon Qwitter's existing infrastructure to continue to provide a powerful, high quality solution. It is extremely intuitive to use and, if you've previously used Qwitter, the same concepts and keystrokes still apply. Even if you haven't, after reading through the included documentation, it's likely you'll be using it easily and efficiently in no time.

It works with most screen readers, including JAWS, Window-Eyes, System Access, SuperNova and the freely available NVDA (version 2010.1 or later).

The current version is 1.0 Beta 4. You can read the online version of the included documentation here or view the log of recent changes.

N.B. This version of The Qube is beta-quality software and, as such, it is possible that its feature set and the way it operates may change significantly before final release. It should also be stressed that, though we will make every effort to eliminate as many problems as possible, it is inevitable that you will still encounter bugs, some of which could potentially lead to system instability.

If you have any bug reports, questions, comments or suggestions, please drop a mention to @quartz_projects on Twitter and we'll be in touch. We'll also make sure we follow you so that, if the need arises, we can communicate via direct message and avoid spamming other users' timelines.
