Computer-Aided Self-Regulation

I enjoyed this article from The Economist about some popular software that helps people stay on task by disabling the Internet (or specific, easily-abusable sites like Facebook) or turning your screen into a blank piece of paper for typing on. I agree that the name Freedom for the software that severs your Internet connection for a length of time you specify is brilliant.

On this note, it's time for me to get to work...using the Internet to finish up my search for articles in the self-regulation literature.
