(Archive) Pomo — Block Digital Distractions

A physical timer that blocks distracting websites on your laptop. A tiny digital detox, a moment of focus, a work-from-home companion.

This project was part of DDW 2022

Distraction is unfair.

You might blame your lack of discipline, but you shouldn’t. It’s the strength of the algorithms, it’s their power to lure you in their endless feeds.

Your brain is being seduced to scroll infinitely through boring pictures, negative news and plenty of ads.

Meet Pomo

I’m working on a cure. I present to you Pomo. A physical timer that blocks distracting websites on your laptop. A tiny digital detox, a moment of focus, a work-from-home companion.
