I like that you don't have to start/stop when switching tasks, but I don't really get why there isn't a way to stop recording time. Does that mean at the end of the day, I'm supposed to make a 'break' entry (as you say in the FAQ) and let it run till the next morning? That seems silly. I am already having to take some action to 'stop' tracking by adding a fake entry so I don't see how it's saving time or keystrokes.
I really like the interface and the minimalist approach otherwise. Whether or not I use it will ultimately come down to the price or the free account limitations.
Yeah, I hear you about the "br" issue. With some of my early testers, it works for them. For others, not so much. I'll probably add a setting that you can adjust. As for pricing, I'm still working that out but I'm going to follow Evernote's approach, i.e. pay for it when you like it or limit it to 1000 entries free (about two months of hard-core usage). I'm open to suggestions.
Can't wait to use this! Looks like it will be immensely helpful to see how time efficient my projects are. I guess I can tag projects by name with a special character and then search for the tags later.. I noticed in the video that only the elapsed time of a task is shown -- is there also a way to see when tasks were started and finished?
Thanks _mattb--I appreciate it. The default view shows elapsed time as you saw. When you search for items, it gives you a transactional view with start/stop times. I'm thinking about adding a setting for how you want the default view, e.g. transactional vs. summary. I've been using this app for a long time (since 2007). I spent the last couple of months cleaning it up for public consumption. It really has helped me keep track of my projects. The most enlightening thing is how much time I spend on phone calls with certain clients. Now I try to monitor that a little bit more.
