Getting my 750 words down is something I have actually been doing on and off for years, but now to see a site that will motivate me to do it. Well I have to say its amazing. Good review too. It might just be a side project for you but I can see a lot of success coming your way from it! Cheers Curtis Hey Buster,

Thanks for the fantastic review! I totally agree with you RE our sharing features as I wanted to release the product as entirely private. However, our users were very vocal in requesting more sharing options... We think of it as blogging flipped on its head: Privacy is the default, sharing is optional. Most blogs are public by default, and optionally private - their experiences aren't too inspiring either ;) Checking out 750words now - so far i like it! I love the morning pages idea and we plan to introduce reminders and guidelines into Penzu sometime in the future to help people regiment their writing. Keep on keepin' on! Regards, A Hey Buster!

However, I do most of my writing in Evernote. It's private, syncs to multiple computers, and has good support for hyperlinks, and supports spotlight.
