Write or Die Anti-Procrastination App Is Not Kidding Around [Apps]

http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets...sktop_copy.jpgIf you're the kind of person who puts off writing tasks until the last minute, it might be worth your time to check out Write or Die, a web app that exacts swift punishment for procrastination.
It's a straightforward enough interface: just tell Write or Die how many words you need to write in how many minutes (or hours). If you keep pace, no worries! If not, there are three degrees of vengeance:

* Gentle Mode: A certain amount of time after you stop writing, a box will pop up, gently reminding you to continue writing.
* Normal Mode: If you persistently avoid writing, you will be played a most unpleasant sound. The sound will stop if and only if you continue to write.
* Kamikaze Mode: Keep Writing or Your Work Will Unwrite Itself

Write or Die is also available on your desktop. The downside: it doesn't save your writing, so when you're done you have to copy and paste back into the word processor or text editor of your choosing. That's a bit of a hassle, but futzing around with your clipboard can be a great time waster.
Regardless, Write or Die works. Believe me. Or at least believe the most unpleasant sound ringing in my ears. [Write or Die via Geekosystem]
