What People Have Said Pick of the Week in Leo Laporte's! 'Blotter is a great productivity application. It places your Calendar calendar directly onto your desktop in a discreet and out of the way fashion, while also being easily accessible. No setup is required, all you have to do is install it from the Mac App Store and your ready to go.' - MacAppolis 'How do you guys live without @BlotterApp?' - @pouramie 'It makes me use my desktop for something useful, while adding the ease of previewing what is coming up right now, without looking too far away.'

Bring Blotter to front for a quick look above the clutter.
