Extension summary

The internet is a distracting place. You are trying to be productive and suddenly you find yourself scrolling on Facebook, Reddit or any other distracting place.

FocusFox helps you to prevent this. By setting up simple rules, you will be redirected from the websites you actually don't want to visit anymore to website you should spend more time on.

FocusFox is continually being developed. In the near future, you will be able to set your own schedule, randomize your redirect rules and set up more rules.

Why only three rules...? Otherwise, exactly what I wanted. Three rules seems pretty arbitrary and not particularly useful.

I can only add 3 Rules! Sucks and is completley useless considering that there are millions of pages that can destract you
