Update: After two weeks of actively using Pomodoro as a method of time management I have observed a significant improvement as far as getting the items on my to-do list checked out!

Personally I observed that it worked better for me with longer time periods of 45 minutes and then a 10 to 15-minute break. Or I sometimes skip the break and restart the clock all over.

As my work requires a lot of research and writing, it was better for me to work on longer periods to avoid any interruptions of my thought process.

Have any of you tried it?

Same here.
Normally I follow this:
45m - 8m - 45m - 8m - 45m - 8m - 45m - 25m
