A Little Zen for Your Life...
I am addicted to the Web Worker Daily Website now. I check it multiple times a day and have found many useful tools for my job so I thought I had to share. My favorite thus far is something called DarkRoom (Windows) and Writeroom (Mac). I spend several hours a day writing between my classes and work. By the end of the day I tend to become easily distracted so this program is a blessing in disguise. It makes your entire screen black except for the brightly colored text so that all distractions are out of eyesight. You can't tell when emails come in and you aren't drawn to surf the web wither. It reminds me of the really old desktops we had with the black screen and green text but it works wonders. I highly suggest it, especially for anyone who is writing difficult material such as dissertations or proposals.

Hi Stephanie. Yes, Web Worker Daily is wonderful. The articles "12 Ways to Use Facebook Professionally" by Judi Sohn and "Eight Ways Twitter is Useful Professionally" by Anne Zelenka are both from Web Worker Daily. I found those two articles to be helpful. Web Worker Daily is Zen for Your Life. Love it!
