If you have a normal office chair, something like these replacement casters are just the ticket. They're a little grippy like roller-blade wheels and roll nicely when unlocked (much better than the plastic casters you're likely using right now), and when locked they hold tight. The set I bought only had two wheel locks but that's enough to keep your chair from rolling.
This set of 5 would be handy because I wouldn't have to swivel around trying to find the correct two wheels to lock. I mention this because you don't actually need to lock all 5 to get the desired effect, just kick the lock lever on any two wheels and you're not going anywhere.
I still don't have a good solution to temporarily lock the swivel motion on my desk chair.
edit: Figured I should mention - if you're in the US and you are sitting in a chair with swivel casters, it's a near-certainty that they are a standard, replaceable size. You can just pull them hogs out (might need pliers to get them to pop free) and stuff new ones in there.
