Saent seems cool - I definitely lose a lot of time to web distractions.

I think I'm learning that people tend to plan further out (a few days to a week) in the face of external deadlines (i.e. exam season at school, sometimes end-of-quarter in business, etc). Adhoc time blocking occurs more when the motivation to be productive is self-imposed. Does that jive with your experience?

I think so. I don't use any calendaring application, not even for birthdays or dentist appointments and never use reminders so my work/todo flow might be unusual.

If your software could disable distractions, and that's mainly access to certain websites (like HN) or email, it's a huge plus.

With the kickstarter campaign I just like the hardware gadget and the initial prices are low enough to try. I can imagine the social sharing added to the software I saw in the screenshots will be awful.
