I had that problem, when willpower wasn't enough I asked the sysadmin to block my computer from any and all procrastination sites. It was a bit embarrassing, but worked like a charm. Angrymonkey
I have found that using a newsreader (NetNewsWire) helps about 60-70%--all my blogs are in there, and I try not to launch it at the office. Except at times when I bring my lunch back to my desk, when I think it's okay.
Though I do Twitter at the office, but that is much less time-consuming.
I am a tenured faculty member at a large state university. My teaching efforts primarily consist of delivering statistics lectures to social science majors. These experiences have colored my perspective somewhat.
