About UpGoerFive Editor
Write a complex idea with only the 1000 most used words. Share with your friends!
The idea for this writing-can-be-changed thing for the phone came from a funny picture about the flying space car Up Goer Five, and from another person who wrote about the same funny picture, and also wrote a writing-changer, but for the world-brain-TV.
Or, to say that normally:
The UpGoerFive Editor was inspired by xkcd comic #1133 (http://xkcd.com/1133), which was a description of the Saturn V rocket using only the 1000 most commonly used words in contemporary fiction (according to Wiktionary), and Splasho's online text editor (http://splasho.com/upgoer5/) also inspired by the comic.
This editor has a selection dropdown for the thousand most commonly used words and their various forms (full list kindly provided by Theo Sanderson/Splasho), and highlights in red any words not in the list.
When not using Android, you can use the online UpGoerFive editor: splasho.com/blog/2013/01/17/a-bit-more-about-the-up-goer-five-text-editor/

I was so happy to find this! I've been wanting a way to have this editor always at my finger tips. It's so fun and challenging at the same time. The app works great. It's straightforward and user friendly. Having the pop up list of word suggestions as you type is invaluable improvement to the original, online version of the editor. Kudos, Andrea!
