Seems like not much time since 8aweek launched, and now it's on the backburner? Any insight into what happened?

Did RescueTime have anything to do with them finding the new idea more tempting? I always thought those two were awfully close to both be funded by YC. And I personally liked RescueTime more. Did 8aweek have any traction before they jumped?

I love 8aweek-- probably one of my top 3 Firefox extensions. Really helped remind me when I got sucked into sites when I should be working.

Not sure if it works for everyone, but it works well for me. RescueTime on the other hand hasn't really done anything for me (except take up 100% CPU a few times). I may be in a minority on that one.
