Awesome. Less Wrong does seem to be an addictive activity. Wanting to keep up with recent comments is one factor in this, and I think I lose more time than I've estimated doing so.
Disciplined abstention is actually a really good solution. I will implement something analogous. For the next 40 days, I will comment only on even days of the month. (I cannot commit to abstaining entirely because I don't have the will-power to enforce gray areas ... for example, can I refresh the page if it's already open? Can I work on my post drafts? Can I read another chapter of The Golden Braid? Etc.)
Later edit: ooh! Parent upvoted for very useful link to LeechBlock.
Weird— without having read this, I just mentioned LeechBlock too and pointed out that I've been blocking myself from LW during weekdays (until 5). I guess all the cool kids are doing it too...
Rehab is for quitters.
Why does everyone like LeechBlock? pageaddict works pretty well and has a far less convoluted interface.
EDIT: and now pageaddict seems to be completely unmaintained and even the domain is expired. Oh well.
