The software formerly known as MacFreedom, and now shortened to ($10 for Mac and Windows) shuts down your Internet access for a set amount of time. It’s serious: The only way to renege on the set time is to turn off your computer. This app is a good choice if you need to work on a non-Internet-based project, such as word processing or visual design, or if you’re trying to rein in some easily distracted kids who need to focus.The rub is that many workers need to use the Internet to get things done, whether the resource in question be Wikipedia or Google, and those pesky social networks are always just a tab away.

It takes things to the next level, though, by providing tools to make you focus on the one thing you have to get done. For instance, you can schedule a disconnecting time in advance—so, from 3 p.m. To 4 p.m., say, you can have your phone automatically go into Do Not Disturb mode.
