There are many useful distraction blocking apps available on the market. Cold Turkey is unique for two features. First, the app allows users to block websites and apps at prescheduled times (for instance, from 9 to 5 on Mondays a user could block Facebook). Second, once that time comes, Cold Turkey freezes the settings. In other words, once the time comes to block that Facebook account, Cold Turkey doesn't allow users to circumvent the embargo through the task manager or uninstall while it's running. Users are then left to do the work they set out to do, without the possibility of distraction. The basic version of Cold Turkey, which will satisfy most users, is free. While the app is only available for PC users at the moment, a Mac version is just around the corner. This will be added to Entrepreneurial Resources Subject Tracer™.
