Read at Work displays a Web browser window that is a dead ringer for a Windows launch page.

Hear the boss coming into your cubicle farm? No problem. You just carry on as if you’ve spent the entire morning working on that hopeless project they’ve dumped on you. No need to click to another page or, in a panic, shut off your screen and reboot the computer — a sure sign of guilt that even the most obtuse boss is likely to spot.
