This is strangely cool, I suppose. The purpose of the e-mail clock is to supposedly prevent compulsive e-mail checkers by ticking off the kilobytes of messages as they enter your inbox. Although cool, I don’t see the point behind it. Wouldn’t it be just better if you could either put away your e-mail device altogether, disconnect your Internet or don’t launch your e-mail client at startup? These methods seem to work for me… sometimes.
