About

This extension adds a cute little draggable floating card onto your browser when you visit distracting websites (e.g. YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook).  

The card will stick there and remind you why you are here, until you complete your tasks.

Nothing special about it. It just adds a bit more friction to use those website, so you don't accidentally fall into the wonderland.
