Time Out! 1
Recently I have gained an appreciation for the concept of a micro break. Mostly due to the fact I work with computers both at the office and at home, as well as pain I have been experiencing in my hands. I stay in front of my Apple Powerbook once I get home for hours at a time.
Long story short, if you use OS X there is a program you should use called Time Out! It has tons of options to specify how frequently and for what duration breaks should occur. The breaks are hard to ignore with the screen gently fading out informing that it is break time. Time Out! is truly a great program to use if you spend a lot of time in front of a computer and want to avoid carpal tunnel!
