You are walking down the street and have a great idea, but as soon as you get back to your computer it’s gone. All writers have experienced it.
Larry Smith, the founder of the storytelling community SMITH Magazine, home of Six-Word Memoirs, has created an iPhone app to help solve this challenge. Six Words is designed to help you quickly write down ideas in six words. Users can write six words on any topic and include a photo to help keep track of their ideas on-the-go.
There is a social component as well, for users that want to engage their ideas with the community. Writers can share their six words to get comments from the group and comment on others’ ideas. There is even “The Daily Six” and “Editor’s Note,” both of which highlight popular ideas.
