But as you say, the nature of some things (especially research) just means that it's not possible. I'd imagine if you had set tasks to do though, that it could be very productive and probably gives you more spare time I’d love to try something like that.

I went through one of those 'top 100 books of all time' lists the other day and I'd read about 60 of them! But of those, maybe 50 I read over a decade ago. Productivity isn't everything -- there's even worse the Internet is doing to us. Daniel you’re a literate person so you may relate — the thing that the Internet has killed for me is reading books.

My experience is same as yours: some things you can do without being on the net, like keeping book (grab the statements first), editing from print outs... a nice way to spend some time on the beach, or no computer stuff at all. Basic research these days has to be online though. And that can be a bummer. I don't suffer much from distractions like twitter or facebook. I’ve done things like this off and on.

If I can't get something productive done in that time then it's just time to move on. Kane I try and judge my time by the life of my battery.

Reminding myself of academic school stuffs is usually enough to disconnect the internet. I don’t need an experiment to limit my internet hours.
