You're a developer and don't know what TimeBoxing is? You must not have a CS degree?

Looks cool but I'm on OSX 10.7.5 and all I get is "application quit unexpectedly " whenever I try to launch unfortunately

Nicely done! Tried it out and will definitely be keeping it. I like the website as well, the utility of the app is obvious from one quick glance.

I think it'll be useful in convincing yourself to do that 15-60 min task that you've been putting off.. or just to get you motivated (I'll fix this bug quickly in 15 mins... and before you know it you've fixed a few).

A few words about what Timeboxing is would be handy on there.
