It would be cool if you could set a schedule for certain times to block sites (or time limits). There are various browser extensions for this, but it would be more effective on the system level.
Should it just let you?
What happens if a client calls or an emergency happens and you need access?
Would love feedback from anyone who wants this feature.
I think the app should let you access blocked sites when you need to, but make it difficult in some way. E.g. it could pop up with a warning and require user to enter a code. Often people waste time impulsively so a small block is enough to get them back to work.
(Alternatively, it could send out an email or post it online when a user over-rides a blocked site. Or it could fine the user!)
Can you look at how "LeechBlock" for Firefox works? It's practically perfect but's only for Firefox.
:)
The issue is it's too easy to disable a Chrome extension, and then you need to re-enable to get it back. It would be better if they allowed you to temporarily over-ride it instead.
