Excellent idea! I've tried various anti-procrastination schemes but not this.
On another note, one thing I've noticed of myself is that at the moment that I have an important insight or get something really working I'm inclined to get up from my desk and grab a drink or go talk to a friend or something similar. It always involves getting up and walking away from my desk, and I never actually need the drink or have a good reason to chat. I often don't realise that I'm going it until I'm a couple of paces away. Anybody else experienced this?
I experience a similar compulsion that doesn't involve walking away, but generally launching a browser, and I don't realize what I'm doing until some site like Facebook or LessWrong is already loading.
Sometimes I catch myself before the site actually loads, close the browser, and continue working.
