Log your minutes in each app with Active Timer
At first I didn't understand Active Timer. Back in the days of my dreaded 8500, aka the knuckle slicer, I used some software to log my time on projects. Problem was, it relied on my intervention to log each and every thing. So when I found the free little app Active Timer, I was skeptical. But Active Timer means active timer. As you are in other programs, it logs the time spent in them— automagically. I was recently asked how long it takes me to do a post. So over the next few weeks, I'm going to try and log some of my time. If Active Timer included an automatic graphing and print capability I might even pay for the thing.Share

It is a very useful application for keeping track of the time we take to accomplish something on our Macs and help us manage our time (as you used to do, I also kept track of my time by logging it manually). However, don't let accountants anywhere near this application; the moment the gray dull squad knows about it, there is the very real risk that it will be used to forcibly keep track of the time we spend doing anything. At the end of the week we will have to account for our time to a tee! If you ever worked for a corporation hijacked and driven by accountants, you know what it is all about and how it will kill your motivation. You have been warned.
