“Though MacFreelance is aimed at the person with little time for deeply integrated invoice tracking software you can create a useful set of reports to see where you are with your cash flow. The flexibility of the system and the simplicity of creating custom reports also means that you’ll be able to manage every area of your business no matter how niche your requirements might seem.”
Excerpt from Pocket Lint Review

Leader of the Pack
“I had been using MS Excel to track time and then send invoices. However, without a good way to track what invoices were sent and what payments had been received I found myself wondering if I had been paid for all of the jobs completed. I needed a comprehensive means to track the time spent on the project as well as the status of each monthly invoice. MacFreelance from Macware did the trick – and did it with style.

After researching several freelance project timers I found MacFreelance the easiest to use and the most comprehensive. After the install I quickly added my first client, several projects, and then was able to start timing my first project. Now my clients can know exactly what I spent time doing, and I can know that the Invoice has been sent and if payment has been received.

Manage Finder windows with ease!

About Simple WindowSets

Are you always digging into the same folders? Do you often have several Finder windows open to perform a task? Then Simple WindowSets is for you! Simple WindowSets sits in your menu bar and is always there when you need it!

You position some Finder windows on your desktop, arrange them however you want, with any view options you want, and then use Simple WindowSets to save them as a set. Your set can be comprised of as many windows as you like and you can save as many sets as you like. Now that you have a set saved, you can restore those windows any time you want by selecting the set from the menu. It’s that easy!

Why Simple WindowSets was Created…

The whole point of creating SWS was to make a product that I wanted to use. I personally needed this task. I’m constantly in-and-out of folders all day long so I needed something to speed that process. Spaces in 10.5 Leopard is one solution, but that’s much more than I need. So the goal of SWS is simply to save sets of Finder windows and allow you to most easily retrieve them. I didn’t want it to have every feature that you can imagine. I put in the features that I think will impact a person’s productivity. Version 3.0 was just released and this version is the most powerful and easy to use version yet. The global keyboard shortcuts have become essential for me. I’m still amazed how much time Simple WindowSets saves me every day.

It’s a Menu Bar Application!

Simple WindowSets runs primarily from the menu bar. When you launch it you will see the icon at the top of your screen near the date/time and spotlight search field. That’s Simple WindowSets! The menu has most of the commands you need to perform common tasks. As a menu-bar application it is available to you at all times. If you need more advanced capabilities then you can choose “Manage WindowSets…” from the menu and the Manager window will display containing other advanced functions.

Vitamin-R

Recapture the lost art of joyful concentration
More ZOTS below…Big Mean Folder Machine, AND the App Store versions!

Normally: $19.95

ZOT Price: $9.95

Recapture the lost of art of joyful concentration. Overcome procrastination. Rediscover the motivation within yourself.

Vitamin-R creates the optimal conditions for your brain to work at its best by structuring your work into short bursts of distraction-free, highly focused activity alternating with opportunities for renewal, reflection and intuition.

The built-in task logging and statistics features create a positive momentum towards productivity by providing visible feedback on your progress and achievements.

Time Slice Your Work

Vitamin-R breaks down large, vaguely defined tasks into a series of short "time slices" of between 10 and 30 minutes, each with specific, easily reachable and actionable objectives. During these time slices it keeps you focused on accomplishing only this one objective and provides you with mechanisms for dealing with interruptions, poor concentration, etc.

Get Started

Vitamin-R concentrates on getting you started allowing you to break through the resistance of procrastination and create a positive feedback loop of small achievements that get you closer to your ultimate aims. You will experience less stress caused by looming deadlines and a lack of clear direction, thus enabling you to enjoy guilt-free breaks that allow your intuition and creativity to emerge.

Find Your Rhythm

Each one of us is different. Finding out what works best for you is the key to true productivity. Vitamin-R helps you by giving you the tools to gain more awareness of how you spend your time, what works for you and what does not. Armed with this new knowledge, you can eliminate unproductive work patterns and discover the work rhythm that suits you best.

Get It Out of Your Head Quickly

Did you know that your short term memory can only hold 4-6 "chunks" of information? The slightest interruption and it’s all gone and you have to start from scratch. That’s why Vitamin-R provides you with the "Now & Later Board", complete with FastType magic, to give you a place to quickly dump all those things that go through your head and allow you to quickly return to your task.

Make It Your Own

Vitamin-R plugs into your life rather than trying to take it over. You can use it occasionally to overcome procrastination or mental blocks or re-organize your entire working life around the concepts that it embodies. It complements rather than replaces traditional to-do list managers, such as Things, OmniFocus or The Hit List for which direct integrations exist.

Now With Cloud Synching!

If you routinely work on multiple Macs, you will love Vitamin-R’s new ability to effortlessly synch your time slice log across the cloud using the free Dropbox service. Setup is as easy as ticking a checkbox.

Try It Yourself

Recapture the lost of art of joyful concentration. Overcome Procrastination. Rediscover the motivation within you.
