Can “button” make you more productive?

I’m not convinced that it can make you better at your job, but “Button” by Blank Software is a nice little distraction.

The premise is dead simple — a big button shows up on your screen.  When it lights up, click it.  That’s it.  It almost sounds too dumb to be true.

The catch is that other people using the app get the same lit-up buttons at the exact same time, and you compete against them for points and prizes.  Dunno if it’ll really catch on, but it’s worth a shot considering it’s free.  You can get it in the App Store here.
