Desktop Poet presents the user with hundreds of word tiles on the Mac desktop or "virtual fridge" area, and by forming the words into sentences or phrases, gives the user the ability to compose imaginative prose or to formulate specific brainstorming ideas.

Desktop Poet visually helps the poet or brainstormer create clearer thinking, more imaginative projects, and better organized writing by expanding on the free flowing thought process.

Here are some key features of "Desktop Poet":
Poetry from the comfort of your Mac
Put down the pen and paper! Welcome your poetry process to the 21st century. Desktop Poet takes advantage of the fact that it is on a computer to both increase the available vocabulary and decrease the number of tiles. It does this by allowing a single tile to have more than one word on it. Highlight the word, click escape, and see the variations of that word available to use. Want to define a word? Press the control key, select define word, and you will be taken to that specific listing at www.dictionary.com.
Take your mind and imagination to uncharted territory
Desktop Poet visually helps the brainstormer or novelist in you with clearer thinking, more imaginative projects, and better organized writing. Break through the writers block by easily expanding on your free flowing thought process. Shift around key words to "see" what you are thinking.
