WriteRoom: Free full-screen writing app for OS X
Merlin Mann | Jun 30 2006
O, how we distraction-prone people pine for persistent and ubiquitous full-screen mode. And it looks like the good folks at Hog Bay have come up with an elegant freeware app to help save the beleaguered writer from him or herself.
It's a primitive application, to be sure -- I suspect completely by design -- but it may be just what the doctor ordered if you need to get your head out of your butt and put some words on the page. I can see myself spending a lot of time in WriteRoom. [ via RickP_in_AZ on the board ] 40 Comments

I'm wondering what kind of writing you guys do that you don't need to reference other documents, web pages, etc., while you write? Even if I were writing a novel, I'd have an plot outline, character sketches, timelines, files of ideas, and the like that I'd need to be looking at while writing. The big distraction is the internet, so if your writing doesn't require reference to the internet, unplug the ethernet or ADSL modem cable, then use your normal word processor. » POSTED IN:
