At a glance, it reminds me of what MS Access was (is?)... or could have been if MS hadn't ignored it to death.
So many people (myself included) were/are incredibly empowered by that program, and I still have a fond place in my heart for Access, as it was my bridge from Excel macros to "real programming".
Hopefully Eve doesn't get DabbleDB'd... the world really needs a modern MS Access!
I work here, so disclaimer, etc, but we're working on a modern MS Access at Airtable [1] -- it's very similar to DabbleDB.
It's early days both for Eve and for us, but it kinda feels like we're approaching the same problem from different angles. Eve's more focused on the programming experience while we're starting by focusing on the data.
This looks quite interesting. Do you have plans for a pricing model to support building a public website on top of it? Also, will it only be (your) cloud based?
We're still figuring out pricing, but each base ("database") has a custom API (the endpoints correspond to your specific schema) that you can use to build a website: http://airtable.com/api
If you haven't heard of DabbleDB, this video is a good introduction: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6wZmYMWKLkY. It shared some goals with Eve, like letting people easily enter and manipulate data, though as far as I know it never tried to support general-purpose programming.
