Porcupine: A distraction free, cross-platform screen writing app
In my spare time, I dabble in writing scripts—just for fun—and I've tried all the popular tools, but they always feel a bit clunky. That's why Porcupine caught my eye. It's a free, cross-platform screenwriting app that just lets you write, no sign-ups or downloads required. With automatic formatting and drag-and-drop scenes, it's like all the little annoyances disappear. Now that we got the tooling sorted out, the next challenge is releasing Hollywood from the grip of superhero franchises.

Journalizr: A speech-to-text journaling app.
Starting anything new from scratch is intimidating. It doesn't matter if it's a new design or a simple journal entry. But what if you could avoid this blank canvas syndrome? That's what Journalizr is hoping to solve with their speech-to-text app. Avoid the daunting process of sitting down with pen and paper and instead just… talk and let the app transcribe. In a world saturated with note-taking and journaling apps, it'll be interesting to see if this is enough of a differentiator to stand out in the crowd.

EyeFocus: Blurs your screen when you look away for a certain amount of time.
EyeFocus leverages the open-source EyeGestures library, which uses native webcams and phone cameras to track pupil movement, to blur your device's screen if you look away for a set amount of time. This is ostensibly to boost productivity (by minimizing distractions) and privacy (by obscuring sensitive information), though I'm not sure the blur effect accomplishes much more than regular sleep mode in either case. Still, this seems like a great first pass at applying some pretty powerful eye-tracking tech — and I'm excited (if a bit apprehensive) to see what applications will follow.
