The idea is that I check their screen from time to time (say, every 5-10 minutes), and if they're surfing LW instead of working, I scream at them via chat. You could probably write software to do that, but getting kicked by a living person is more humiliating.
Alternately, you could write the software to check every so often and alert the working person that the non-working person isn't working. That actually almost turns it into a PD situation, even without the being-yelled-at bit: If both people cooperate, nobody ever gets interrupted when they're working.
Yes, good idea. Thanks.
