Time management?
Gary King | Jan 22 2006
I'm looking for a time management app. What I'm thinking, in particular, is one where, when I click on one button, it will start a stopwatch and this time will be added to my 'work' time. So, if I start it at 0:00, and then stop it at 10:00, then 10 minutes will be added to my 'work' time. But, when I stop it, it begins timing again - but this time, it will be added to the 'fun' time. So, I stop it at 10:00, and then from 10:00 to, say, 15:00, then the 5 minutes in between will be added to the 'fun' time. I wonder if something like this is available? The 'work' and 'fun' could be considered categories. This is an idea of what I am looking for, I guess, but I am very flexible with this, so if you have any suggestions, then feel free to do so. I want something like this to be able to see where my time actually goes to. :) 6 Comments

I'm not sure if this is what you are looking for, but I started using "Tivon", which is really a time tracking excel spreadsheet for billing your time. I use it all the time to keep track of what I am doing throughout the day. Then I can't go back and say, "hmmm,,,what did I do today?" It takes some amount of discipline to continuously keep track of what you are doing, but if you don't, then time slips away too easily. This is really simple to use and the spreadsheet format makes it easy to look back and see what you have done. I think their website is at TivonSoftware.com, and there is a free trial to check it out. I do have Windows, but I'd rather get an OS X app. » POSTED IN:
