Computers are suppose to help us improve our productivity and the more powerful they get the more productive we are suppose to be. At least I have been told.
Not only are computers getting more powerful but their interfaces have been optimized for users to be constantly multitasking which is horrible for any creative work that we are using the computer for.
If you love to write but can't get yourself into a writing mode because you have tons of icons on your desktop that are reminding you of other things you should to be doing or you have multiple instant messengers trying to get your attention I recommend you try out WriteRoom. WriteRoom turns your powerful computer into an old fashioned typewriter and creates a "distraction free writing" environment for those times you just want to write.
If only it would write posts for you!
