SiteBlocker
A website-blocking Safari Extension
SiteBlocker is a Safari 5 Extension that allows you to block websites that suck your time and attention away from getting things done.
When you try to visit a site you’ve blacklisted, you will be redirected to a website of your choosing. By default, you’ll be directed to Merlin Mann’s What Are You Doing Right Now? page.
This extension doesn’t offer complex rules or timers, by design.1 A procrastination plugin with a bunch of settings is just another opportunity for distraction. If you really want to procrastinate, grab your iOS device of choice and go procrastinate. If you’re going to work, work.

Yeah, that’s a convenient cop-out. I don’t have time to build this into a LeechBlock-scale extension. It’s open source though — take it further if you’re so inclined.↩
