So I thought that because I haven’t been out and taken any photos of late, due to a lack of fuel and money, I would write a review of some software I recently found.

Cold Rain by Idle Type on Flickr.

I drove into the city today and while waiting for a friend to finish some business, I decided to wait at the library. I found myself drawn to the computer section. I don’t know how but this always seems to happen; even in a library that I’ve never been to before.

I found the book “Lifehacker” by Gina Trapani. The book, for those who haven’t heard of it, is a series of “hacks” that you can do in your everyday life try and take the load off and make things easier and more productive. It seemed very interesting, and I have heard of the Lifehacker brand before, so I thought I would borrow it out.

Just scanning through it, I’ve already found a useful application to help me be more productive.

Noise, by Blackhole Media is a program that generates a constant sound of noise, much like you would hear on your television when you get no signal.

The program is designed to block out any unwanted noise, whether it be the washing machine, annoying co-workers, or the neighbor’s 18th birthday party at 2am.

To me the white noise reminds me of rain hitting the roof and windows of my house; others may find it reminds them of the waves on a beach. In any case, Noise is a peaceful application that allows you to concentrate better on your work by blocking out all other audible distractions.
