Have you tried using the LessWrong Study Hall? They do pomodoros (25 minutes of work with 5 minutes break or 50 minutes work with 10 minutes break). YMMV, but I found that it helped motivate me, when I would otherwise be unmotivated. The five or ten minutes between pomodoros is fun, and while in a pomodoro, you are working with other people, so you have that sense of solidarity.
I bookmarked it. I'll probably check it out soon.
Coming from someone who just asked about ways to overcome procrastination, this made me quite literally laugh out loud. :)
To be fair, I did manage to work for an hour without it. I haven't worked much since then, though.
I dare you to try it out in the next 6 hours, no excuses. :)
