Distraction is something evident with almost everybody. Especially people working over the internet, bloggers, writers, journalist can get distracted easily with latest and great of the social media, feeds, emails, IM and almost all flashy desktop softwares.

Recently i did a topic on how to efficiently save time, and improve productivity. But you won’t be productive until you pull the plug or apply some drastic measures to reduce distraction.

Here are 5 ways to help block distractions while going through your work.

1. Limit Time-Wasting Web Sites with LeechBlock (Firefox)

With Leechblock you can block all your addictive websites.You can specify the time periods and its GUI interface is pretty good. If you are an ace blogger but get easily distracted with the social stuffs, leechblock is your buddy! After from that LeechBlock is free, works wherever Firefox does.

 Anyone there caught with the twitter bug. You can’t seem to sign out of Twitter but you still have lots of works to do with your browser rather then twittering the whole day. You can still manage to twitter along with a desktop client.

Twitteroo desktop client seems to work in most cases letting you twit while working without switching tabs. But i really would love to have something for Vista, something that’s built on WPF more like the Yahoo Messenger for Vista. In that case Witty might just the thing for you.

Witty is created by Vertigo, they already have made many apps based on Vista exclusive features. But you won’t find any mention of Witty on the company website. Rather you have to move over to the official Google Code page. Hum…..so it seems to be a beta.
