Sometimes, a random idea blurted out of nowhere can give your mind the proper jolt it needs. Works for me sometimes. Here’s one little Firefox add-on that lets random messages pop-up on demand - Random Message. Clicking a little button in your status bar will bring up random message pop-ups, like this one.

Best for those times when your mind starts to wander aimlessly instead of focusing on your work. Okay, so it’s mostly a toy. It can even be an annoying little bugger for most. But there must be a reason why this thing was built? Hehehe…
