Yes, this I know and also used already, but later I stopped using it. CherryTomato I just discovered yesterday and wanted to share it here. I think it is at least worth giving it a try.
If you watched the video I posted above, the ticking clock sound in the background is a key concept here, so CherryTomato is like using a simple kitchen clock in software form, plus some nice information about those 25 minute time slots, like keyboard and mouse activity and percentage you spent on each window.

Just FYI...
While I agree cherry is a great application, the dev. switched to OSX so won't update it much. It seems that it gives errors when compiling, so a 3rd party fixing is unlikely.
I also posted a request for improvement at DC here.
If someone made this in ahk (with added global shortcuts) I'd be grateful.

Does this mean it's not fully working on OS X? That is my preferred OS.
I'm into productivity too and I am currently using this tool which is quite similar to CherryTomato. However, it's just plain time tracking, monitoring and management with a web UI for all your statistics. No fancy extras.
It's great to see some good alternatives though. After all, what we all want is productivity in our respective workplaces.
