  • Fullscreen as a productivity booster

    Usually when I write a blog post on a computer I do so in a text editor. I prefer software like OmmWriter, WriteRoom and Scrivener, rather than full-fledged word processors like Pages, OpenOffice or Word. In fact, I could go on about why that last one is a trojan from Hell, but that’s a completely different matter.

    You know, the list goes on. Very cool. I am, in fact, writing this post in MarsEdit 3.something which feels nice. This used to be my blog post home back in the day. I doubt it will be again, unfortunately (and I’ll get to why later on) but still, feels nice.

    So, good times ahead!
