GNOME Shell time-management app

This GNOME Shell app helps you to manage time according to the pomodoro technique. Features: * puts a countdown timer in the GNOME Shell top panel; * nags you with reminders about taking a break; * uses full screen notifications that can be easily dismissed; * hides other notifications until the start of the break; * sets your IM (Empathy) status to "busy". The pomodoro technique is a time and focus management method which improves productivity and quality of work. The name comes from a kitchen timer, which can be used to keep track of time. In short, you are supposed to focus on work for around 25 minutes and then have a well deserved break in which you should relax. Then when this cycle repeats for the fourth time you should take a longer break (have a walk or something).
