In an attempt to be part of the solution, as well as part of the problem, I want to post links to two shareware programs that temporarily block access to web browsers and other virtual time-wasters, so that you can concentrate on what you should be doing instead of reading this blog. A good friend recommends
Freedom, which runs only on Macs. I've been using
Temptation Blocker, a comparable program for Windows, and I'm pleased with the results so far.
