Product Description:

Think is a cleverly streamlined application to shift your workflow from overwhelming to under-control with just the flick of a mouse. Think allows users to "illuminate" any Mac OS X application they'd like, blocking distractions from other windows and applications, so that they can focus on the task at hand. Since many work projects require multiple applications, Think also allows guest applications to be temporarily brought forward, and when no longer needed, quickly hides them away.

Think ReviewGreat utility! - Version: 1.2, 9/13/2008 01:48PM PST

Files and other open windows can definitely be a distraction, especially on laptop computers. I don't know what the one-star reviews are talking about.... Think is intuitive and very simple to use.

Think ReviewGood idea, complicated implementation - Version: 1.2, 4/11/2008 08:24AM PST

We all know how to switch apps: cmd-tab, dock, exposé. A background-hiding app would be a very simple thing: just hide the background, maybe provide a shortcut to turn itself on and off. Easy, right?

Unfortunately, what this app does is to unecessarily introduce 4 special concepts ("illuminate, raise, guest, refocus") and 3 very illogical keycommands (some use cmd-option, some use cmd-control). And then it adds a 8-page pdf to explain everything.

Dear Freeverse, thanks for providing us with something free, but would you mind also make it - you know - easy? Thanks!

looks like a lot of hoopla for something really simple. Too much work to use the interface. There ought to be a better way to implement a feature like this without having to "think" about it, like a prefpane.
