It's just a click away: A sunset by the sea. Just a few clouds dot a sky with a few seagulls circling. Listen closely and there's the sound of waves lapping at the beach. The only incongruous part is the two-minute countdown in the middle of it all.
But that's the hook of the website donothingfor2minutes.com. It invites visitors to enjoy the view and just do nothing for two minutes. Anyone who tests it out quickly learns that two minutes can be a pretty long time, especially if one is sitting in front of a computer trying not to touch the keyboard or the mouse. It's actually a challenge, as one fights the urge to be distracted and look elsewhere.
The creators of the site took that into account. If one should slip up and touch the computer during the countdown, it starts over and you once again - as many times as necessary - have the chance to do nothing for two minutes.
