Oblomovka [Webolodeon Greasemonkey Script] As mentioned in our latest column for Make, Danny presents herewith his Webolodeon, a Greasemonkey script that bugs you every few minutes to ask whether you should really still be surfing the web.
Update 2005-06-03 06:45:31I should have said—Danny’s script requires the latest (0.3.3) version of Greasemonkey. Click to install. Sorry for any confusion, B. Adam, et al. 13 Comments

I love it! Just need a version for Safari now. And it would be really useful if the responses were logged so that you could look back and see exactly where all those hours went… The script is easy to read but since I’ve never done any java script I think editing it myself would leave me in google / interweb land for far too long ;) »
