This app sounds amazing (in theory):
SelfControl is an OS X application which blocks access to incoming and/or outgoing mail servers and websites for a predetermined period of time.
For example, you could block access to your email, facebook, and twitter for 90 minutes, but still have access to the rest of the web. Once started, it can not be undone by the application or by restarting the computer, you must wait for the timer to run out.
Hah! It sounds brilliant, but not sure if I’ve got enough self-control to use this self-controlling app.
Oh, wait…

I wish they made it for windows…

You could try this: http://macfreedom.com/
(they have a Windows Version)
There is a trial available but I think you do have to pay like $5 for the full version.
Katie says
Is it really SELF control if you have to have an app do it for you? Or is this just another example of Apples lesser known slogan: Taking over your life one menial task at a time–There’s an app for that!

haha! seriously……
