I’m really enjoying my new tool from WriteRoom! It is a program that allows for distraction free writing on your Mac. WriteRoom basically clears your screen so that  the only image is your text on a plain background. Here’s a screenshot of this blog in WriteRoom:

So often we have multiple programs running on our computer at the same time and it really clutters our screens. Mac OS-X does a great job by adding a few features such as Expose  and Spaces, add in another computer screen and you’d think you have the ability to keep your computer screen free from clutter. But with dozens of open e-mails, web browsers  and a myriad of other programs running, it’s inevitable that by lunch our computer will be one big mess.
I recommend you take a look at WriteRoom if you’re a person that writes often. Furthermore, explore using it  in conjunction with Spaces; I like the black text on grey background too but everyone has their preferences. Either way, after a test run or two  you may find it to be one of the best programs you’ve ever downloaded!
Here's what WriteRoom looks like on a full screen.

Notice how you can’t see any other programs, even your desktop is hidden.

So often we have multiple programs running on our computers at the same time and it really clutters our screens. Mac OS-X does a great job by adding a few features to the operating system, such as Expose and Spaces to help manage our systems. Add in another computer screen and you’d think you have the ability to keep your computer screen free from clutter. But with dozens of open e-mails, files, web browsers, and a myriad of other programs running, it’s inevitable that by lunch our computer will be one big mess. I really dislike shutting my MacBook down at the end of the day because I can’t close all the programs, but that’s another problem for another blog post.

I recommend you take a look at WriteRoom if you’re a writer that writes often, especially a blogger creating Internet marketing content. Furthermore, it might be helpful to explore using it  in conjunction with Spaces; I like the black text on grey background but everyone has their preferences. Either way, after a test blog or two  you may find it to be one of the best programs you’ve ever downloaded!

Levi Spires

Dumb luck or maybe divine intervention was Levi’s ticket to ride on the Site-Seeker train. It’s the only way a left-brained Air Force accountant can get a boarding pass for such a creative venture. Levi’s job is pretty simple; just shovel coal into the steam engine to keep Site-Seeker moving fast - as long as we don’t derail.

Levi’s military number-crunching background has given him the skills to grow people. Some might say that military officer leadership training prepared him to take on a management role, but it’s the accounting skills that give Levi a real advantage. Site-Seeker is a creative bunch that needs purpose, focus, a checklist, a process, a project management system, and a way to analyze results. With all of Levi’s talent on loan from God, he knows how to manipulate a spreadsheet to get to that one perfect number - just ask our clients!

When Levi’s not at Site-Seeker, he dreams about it. It’s the entrepreneur in him. He plays a little golf, hangs out with his family, and enjoys the Sabbath. But, mostly, he just likes to work. Site-Seeker fulfills all of Levi’s ambitions, pushing him to levels of learning and productivity that he had never imagined possible. Best of all, Levi enjoys his friends. He doesn’t have to come into the office to do business, but he chooses to. Everyone Levi knows is right here at Site-Seeker, and he likes it.

    Looks pretty cool Levi. Pages 09 has a similar feature. I find it REALLY helps with distractions.
