Increase Productivity With Cold Turkey
Posted August 21, 2020

Working from home can be a double edged sword at times. On one hand productivity can be increased if you have a nice quiet house to work within and you have all the comforts of, well...home. On the other hand, if you get sidetracked with time sucking apps and websites, productivity is easily lost.
Not only is Cold Turkey a delicious snack the day after Thanksviving, it's an application that blocks websites, applications, your whole computer, or the whole internet and locks them down until a specified time that you set. This allows you to focus on the work that you need to get done, without the tempting distraction of Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Fortnite or other time suckers.
Blocking certain apps and websites makes it easy to stay on task and get more done in a shorter ammount of time.
There is a free version and a paid version of Cold Turkey. Lots of features are available in the free version. In the paid version you get scheduling, password options, time limits and some other features. And the paid version is a one-time fee, there is no recurring subscription.
