Instant Boss: A Late Recommendation!

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

Last week, I promised a review of Instant Boss, but I was in the normal “month end triage” that those of us in the RE profession find ourselves in.  Basically, the idea is that we can’t sustain focus forever.

Not even powerful minds can always concentrate on stuff.  So, we use crutches and tricks and shortcuts to help us along the way.  Enter Instant Boss.  Instant boss.   It’s running now as I post this in Windows Live Writer:

You set it, I’m working on two work sessions, and then I’m done.  I’ll probably work more because I’m in a zone.  It will pop up, telling me when to take a break, and then another sound will signal when the break is over.

You can crack down on yourself and say: OK, I’m doing taxes for X amount of time, and getting X amount of breaks.  You can ’snooze,’ and work a little more, or not if you want to, depending on hat your plans are.

Where do you get instant boss?
