Caffeine control

CaffeineWe have not discussed the freeware app Caffeine on Appletell before. It’s basically an app that runs in your Mac’s menu bar that, when you control-click the icon in the menu bar, you can select periods of time for your screen to remain on. This is great for those times when you have a 10-minute YouTube video to watch, but your Mac’s screen dims after 5 minutes. Caffeine overrides any screen savers or your Mac’s backlight settings, to keep your screen on for the duration of time you set in the menu bar.

It’s a really useful app, that will help you be more productive on your Mac. It’s also free. You can download it from Lighthead Software’s website.
