The idea is that you commit to working on a task for 10 minutes, not necessarily completing it, but doing something to move it closer to being done. When the timer ends after 10 minutes, you have exactly 2 minutes for a break to do whatever you want - read email, surf Reddit, whatever.

✭ Repeat 5 times to hack your procrastination into oblivion!

✭ iOS4 devices keep the timers running in the background!
