Freedom is a simple productivity application that locks you away from the internet on Mac or Windows computers for up to eight hours at a time. Freedom frees you from distractions, allowing you time to write, analyze, code, or create. At the end of your offline period, Freedom allows you back on the internet. You can download Freedom immediately for 10 dollars through either PayPal or Google Checkout.

Freedom enforces freedom; you'll need to reboot if you want to get back online while Freedom's running. The hassle of rebooting means you're less likely to cheat, and you'll enjoy enhanced productivity. Freedom does one thing and it does it exceedingly well: It helps you get work done.


Freedom around the web…

In the past few weeks, Freedom has made a few appearances around the web:

  • The Chicago Tribune ran a feature article about Freedom,
  • Fantastic authors Dan Baum (Nine Lives) and Jeff Howe (Crowdsourcing) tweeted about using Freedom. Thanks!
  • Dennis Cass, who has written for Harper’s, the New York Times Magazine, and Slate, writes of Freedom: “To say that it’s changed my life is an understatement. After a few weeks using Freedom, I discovered that the book browsing and the people watching really weren’t the problem. It was the internet.”
  • I made an entirely surreal appearance on the Mancow show to promote Freedom.  The person who came on after me “speaks to angels.”
  • Freedom made an appearance on the Economist’s Intelligent Life blog and the great blog Unclutterer.
  • Finally, Freedom made it to the top of Reddit.com/geek.

Thanks to everyone who links to Freedom!
