Pretty Cool Free Tool...Saves your eyes / better sleep



Heh totally agree!! And for those wondering how it works. Here is my take. Ya know that sometimes you do something and you get all caught up in the details and little things? Well, when Workrave interrupts me, after a quick 30 second break, it kinda shifts my focus to the bigger picture. Not to say that the details aren't important, but sometimes they aren't. So ya, I definitely see a productivity increase with that tool as well. I still use it though, because otherwise I'll get caught up and forget to take a break. I like breaks :) I get snacks, walk around, stretch, check my car to make sure naughty bylaw didn't mark my tires with chalk :)
How often do you set your 30 second breaks?
 
So does this just adjust the brightness of your screen relative to the time of day?

I use something called "Shades" on my iMac. It has a little slider at the top of my screen that I adjust a couple times a day depending on how my eyes feel.

If you don't want something automatically controlling your brightness I'd recommend it.

It does more than that. It adjust the intensity of the light plus (and this what makes all the difference) matches the color temperature of your environment.
 
THanks a bunch!! Its great! I have been looking for something similar. Loving it so far!
