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.


SETI Interview

This week, Peggy Orenstein and I appeared on SETI‘s (yes, that SETI!) public radio program to talk about Freedom.  Other guests on the program include Ray Kurzweil and Stephen Wolfram.

The segment on Freedom is about 30 minutes in.  I enjoyed hearing Peggy talk about her work on the article, and her use of Freedom.
