Mindful Browsing: Control Your Internet Time Effectively
Extension stats
Ranking
Extension summary
Entirely in your control. You specify which sites you'd like to be mindful about your time on, and provide a list of things you'd generally rather do instead.
Mindful Browsing doesn't block you from visiting sites - it simply asks if you'd like to visit, and if so, reminds you 10 minutes later.
Beautiful. Mindful Browsing features stunning photographs from some of the world's best landscape photographers. If you're a photographer and are interested in having your work featured, email [email protected].
Free. Open. Safe. Mindful Browsing was built by me, Steven Skoczen, to help with my own mindless browsing. Friends liked it, so I made it available for free on the chrome store.
Mindful Browsing doesn't track any of your activity, and the code is open-source so that you (or a geeky friend) can verify nothing sneaky is going on.
