Ponder for Chrome

When you get used to writing down your thought on a regular basis, you need to make sure your journal is always within reach, so you can easily get it and put down a fleeting idea or feeling.

Ponder for Chrome aims to help you in this regard, as it puts your journal right in your browser, so it is always a mouse click away.

As soon as you install this add-on in your Chrome browser, your New Tab page is replaced with a new customized one, where you are invited to enter your name.

Next, you are asked to choose the type of writing you are mostly interested in, such as daily productivity, daily lists or daily reflection, along with creative, self-reflection or free texts. All the data you enter is save locally, so you can rest assured that your privacy is protected.

You can also activate a reminder so you do not forget to create content for your blog or your online accounts (such as Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Reddit or Pinterest).

Once you have created one or more entries, Ponder offers you the possibility to explore previous notes and maybe even continue writing if you are feeling particularly inspired.

A progress chart is also generated and you can view information such as how many you words you have written today or the current week, along with the longest streak. You can jump directly to a certain day using the integrated calendar.

Ponder offers you the chance to get familiarized with several hotkeys and quickly skip a prompt, take a break or start writing as soon as you open a new tab.

To summarize, Ponder can help you regain your motivation to keep a daily journal, while also displaying affirmation and encouraging you to identify and appreciate the good things in your day to day existence.
