My current career path has me sittign on my ass infront of a computer for most of the daylight hours. I have back issues, and sometimes I get too involved in my work and forget to move.  Combine that with years of volleyball and tight muscles I got a herniated disc.  So I made a simple AIR application that will block out the screen and tell you to take a break after a proscribed period of time (30 minutes).  This can be set from 0 to 180 minutes (no person should be sitting for 180 minutes straight though!).  If you have multiple monitores it will block all your monitors.

The source is there for you to tweak, right click on the app and view source.
