:( I would like it to be - when I first heard it described (by a very productive developer) it sounded great - having a clear plan of what needs doing, having regular short breaks interspersed with longer ones, working solid without any distractions, and so on. But what I think I need is something more targetted/integrated at how I work - something connected to the IDE that waits for you to finish typing and/or save a file before deciding if to interrupt, where I can commit a change, mark a task as completed, and it then says "after you've tested that, your next task is..." or "time for a break; here's a five minute article to read" or "go have a walk" or whatever. Of course, odds are nobody has created anything like that yet, so at some point I'll have to have a go myself, but I've got too much other stuff that must come first. `3.1415P265E589T932E846R64338`

I don't tend to stop immediately after a podomoro finishes if I'm on with a task. Rather I find for me it carves up time into chunks that I'm motivated to fill.

Not really read much around it but I've found it very useful.

Roses are bollocks, Violets are crud, I hate bloody flowers, And much prefer mud.
