Maybe you could use it for something, like a reminder to stop browsing internet sites and do some work :) There was a write recently of someone who got a ton more work done by hiring someone on craigslist to slap them in the face if they ever go off task, like spending a lot of time on facebook.


But they were getting slapped when they were distracted: not every 5 minutes whether they were focused or not.

I'm having a hard time imagining constant interruption being good for concentration.
