Getting sidetracked when trying to get work done is a common problem for many digital professionals, so 'Deprocrastination' has been created to help alleviate this occurrence. The extension works by being set up on a browser and instantly going to work blocking out social media and other websites that can cause users to become distracted from their professional work. The timer functionality will encourage users to spend more time actually working without having to feel tempted to perform a search or check in on their social media accounts.
The 'Deprocrastination' browser extension is also focused on a gamified functionality and will let users compare themselves against other professionals. Users can compete with friends and get points for staying focused.
