Close, I think. Beeminder, at least the way I use it, lets me turn intention into urgency.

Used well, I think Beeminder lets you turn one big emergency in the future into many tiny emergencies over time, reducing the severity of the stressful procrastinate-then-panic cycle the article you linked describes.
