Browser extension (or other software) to delay page load
- by Doug Harris
The alt text to today's comic at xkcd.com (strip below) says:
After years of trying, I broke this
habit in a day by decoupling the
action and the neurological reward. I set up a simple 30-second delay I had to wait through, in which I couldn't do anything else, before any new page or chat client would load
(and only
allowed one to run at once). The urge
to check all those sites magically
vanished--and my 'productive' computer
use was unaffected.
(bold is my emphasis)
Does anybody know of a browser extension or other software that will add this sort of delay? I've seen extensions which simply block sites, but not a delay like this.
