WRITING http://www.hemingwayapp.com/ I haven't seen this posted anywhere, and I'd like to bring it to the thread's attention. Hemingway is a lightweight editing tool designed to pick out long, unwieldy sentences. I like it, even though it tends to tear actual Hemingway apart. It's basically a roided out version of Editminion, with a much simpler interface. I use it to point out problematic places in the manuscript itself. It helps me to pinpoint where sentences meander off into the distance and need to be reigned in. loving commas are going to be my crutch for life.   That said, does anyone know of anything that boosts productivity? I remember reading about a limiter for webpages that tracks how long you've been on them and then denies access until you finish certain tasks, like a net nanny program. Does anyone have any suggestions? It's really hard to describe what the drat thing did. It restricted access to these sites, which you specified, and then to disable it you had to click through a bunch of passive aggressive pop ups. You could set it to run for certain periods a day, like from 9-12, and it would do that. I really wish I could remember what it was called. Edit: I actually found what I was looking for! Stayfocusd is the app I was referring to, and it works in chrome. You have an allotted amount of time on "time waster" websites, like SA, Reddit, Twitter, Facebook. After that, it slaps you into a blank page that admonishes you that you should be working. I am going to try it out now! Lywinis fucked around with this message at 12:12 on Mar 2, 2014 |
