Here's a nifty tool I've found during a StumbleUpon session:
http://lab.drwicked.com/writeordie.html

An explanation as to how it works:
"Write or Die is a web application that encourages writing by punishing the tendency to avoid writing. Start typing in the box. As long as you keep typing, you're fine, but once you stop typing, you have a grace period of a certain number of seconds and then there are consequences."

There is also going to be a desktop release this friday for $10, so it won't be a simple web script for much longer.

It's creator, Dr.Wicked can be found on Twitter (www.twitter.com/DrWicked)

Well, I hit evil speed, with a goal of 250 words in 20 minutes, and it really gets me going for as long as I really don't want to cheat on me. Although I just wrote about writing in that box using that system, I really managed to reach that goal of 250 minutes and my mind is now encouraged to take smaller breaks after a dot.:high5: Its fun though.... using Kamikaze mode...well, funny.:poet:
