Procrastinator Extension

** new - you can now customise the block page with your own url; either local file, or http url!

Find yourself getting easily distracted while completing tasks on the web? Procrastinator allows you to block websites you consider distracting to ensure you stay focused on your task.

Procrastinator is designed to quickly add the websites you deem a distraction, and it does the rest. You also control when the websites are blocked with a simple timespan.

This chrome extension will allow you to stay focused, and block yourself from distractions whilst you work.

Procrastinator gives you the control of which specific websites, or a sub-set of websites using it's simple pattern matching techniques. Or if you're a power user, you can use regular expressions to fine tune which url's are blocked.

Once you have defined your list of sites you want to block, you can also individually control the blocker for each website, or use a general time span to control all of the blocked websites.

Clemens Ratte-Polle (ID: 00000020588ec5f5) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 02/27/2023 ok, very simple :) But it forwards to an error page: This page has been blocked by... This should be disabled optionally: - Load error page? I want to forbid to forward a site to a specific URL.

Tonmoy Hasan (ID: 0000006d49a1efa2) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 01/05/2023 Downloaded for the first time, really doesn't meet the need. Would be really helpful if it worked well, at least did half the work like shown in the overview.

CryoRaid (ID: 0000002f017605b3) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 02/21/2018 It works well, but I find it too easy to turn off, with me being a person with no self control, I will usualy just turn it off and stop working. come to think of it, I'm in history class right now with about 12 things missing so... yeah..
