    Needles in the eyes...

    There is a plugin for FF that will allow you to block sites...put youtube.com in there

    ;-)

    Simple self discipline...

    You need that to be a good CEO, without it you're sunk. I don't block sites physically, I do so mentally, and once I do, they often stay blocked for months or years...

    I did a mental block for Yahoo Messenger and ICQ in the past since they just never let me get any work done, after a while I didn't even remember how to use YM! ouch!... but my days got way more productive so I'm not complaining, and neither am I bored, I prefer to work on my web business than sit around chatting or watching shows online...

    Maybe I'm a freak of some kind, but that's the only way I know to get any work done, on or offline... simply MENTALLY switch off!

    Cheers,

    Kunle

    What you really need to do is sign up to 'Twitter'.
    You'll have another addiction then which won't give you any time to watch YouTube video's :-)

    (But you may learn something to your advantage while 'Tweeting')

    Lol yeah that happens to me as well. But I try to ONLY go on youtube while having lunch or on my actual lunch-break. I'd advice you to start working in SPRINTS rather than slow marathons.

    Allows for more breaks

    YouTube rocks!
