It is a freeware tool for Windows which can block sites. The app is designated first of all for those who want to save time spent on using social networks like Facebook, Twitter, Orkut etc and other entertainment sites. It works as a reminder. The app comes with various sites in different categories.
Clicking on the options lets you select the sites you want to block. The sites are categorized into social networks, blogs, news sites, media etc. When you click the button, the selected sites are blocked.
When trying to access a blocked site a stop-page will be shown. It should remind of intention to limit time spent on watching that or this site. Interface of the software is extremely minimalistic and easy to use.
