Very cool concept. Can you describe your experience in using this? Is it effective?

I've been using it since I was developing it, and it's as effective as you make of it. Imagine a pomodoro timer, but you plan your pomodoros with extreme ease. It adds a lot more structure to your day too.

I don't see how this differs from a normal calender in terms of killing procrastination? The problem I have is not that I haven't planned correctly, it's that I do not follow my plan.

There's integrated time tracking. If you don't follow through in a day (say you only did 30 minutes of an hour allocated), you can reschedule very easily and down to the minute.

integrate/sync with google calendar?

It's on the roadmap, but there would be a ton of API calls to make; one of the main features is the ease of rescheduling things. Also, the idea is you can spread your task out over a day, because it's mainly a plannable timer, so any calendar integration would just be in the "day" field.

If I reschedule all the time, what's the point of having the calendar? =)
