			The best Pomodoro app for a shareable web-based Pomodoro timer
			MarinaraTimer (Web)

			Marinara Timer, our pick for the best shareable web-based Pomodoro timer

			MarinaraTimer pros:

			Shareable timer makes it easy to work with other people

			Surprisingly customizable timers, so you can use it for non-Pomodoro things

			MarinaraTimer cons:

			Very dated web app

			The Pomodoro Technique is a personal productivity practice, but it's also incredibly effective for small groups of people working together—either in person or online. You work for 25 minutes, then spend five minutes discussing what you're doing. And repeat. Not many Pomodoro timers are set up to be used like this, however, which is why web-based MarinaraTimer makes our list—despite its dated look. (The developers are working on a new version, though maybe MarinaraTimer is now so dated it counts as retro.)

			MarinaraTimer is as simple as it comes: you don't even need an account to share timers. When you open the website, you're presented with three timer options: Pomodoro, Custom, and Kitchen. Pomodoro is the normal 25/5 setup with a 15-minute break after four rounds; Custom lets you set up whatever work/break/rest periods you and your team need; Kitchen is just a simple timer.

			Where MarinaraTimer really stands out (other than the questionable design) is that you can share timers. Each one has a unique URL that you can send to your coworkers in other locations. That way, everyone can work off the same countdown. You can customize the link text (just click Manage) and even create an administrator link, so other people can reset the timer as needed.

With TBTS co-working sessions, you intersperse doing work (usually for 15 minutes or 20 minutes at a time) with taking turns doing Teddy Bear Talk Support (usually for 3 minutes each). I do sessions like these regularly that last between 90 minutes and 2 hours.

			For a one-hour TBTS co-working session, here is a suggested format. Do four TBTS sessions interspersed with three 14-minute work sessions. For the TBTS sessions, set a one minute timer for each person. When the timer goes off, reset the timer to give them up to another minute to wrap up.
