Workrave Earns Raves

July 7th, 2006  |  Published in RSI Products  |  Tags: software

At InternetNews.com, Sean Michael Kerner writes about Workrave (How Open Source Saved My Neck), the free break reminder program from developer Raymond Penners.

Workrave is a program that assists in the recovery and prevention of Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI). The program frequently alerts you to take micro-pauses, rest breaks and restricts you to your daily limit. Workrave is available for both Linux and Windows.

AntiRSI is a similar break reminder program for Mac OS X.
