Happily, I rarely have to log the minutes and hours I spend working. We mostly quote on whole projects or have monthly retainers, so there’s little micromanaging (and microcounting) my own time. However, if I ever need to more regularly, this script from Lifehacker would be extremely useful:
A week and a half ago, I published a simple script called QuickLogger that logs your work day activities to a text file on your PC. Today I have an alternate version that writes directly to a spreadsheet. Additionally, several readers stepped in and made improvements and modifications to the original QuickLogger script, plus alternate suggestions and a Mac version.
I haven’t tried it, but it looks simple enough. I expect there’s a whole range of commercial products that do the same thing. I imagine every lawyer in the country has one.

That would have been a blessing when my boss in NB decided we had to track every 15 minutes of our day by hand on paper. Sometimes when you are designing it is so easy to get lost in what you are producing and juggling/jumping around between projects that having to record every 15 mins was an annoyance. Then the boss would get angry when he saw how long a particular project took in relation to what he had quoted the client.
I liked the QuickLoggerPlus version the best. It’s pretty cool. Thanks.
You produced some decent points there. I looked on the net towards the issue and located many people go together with together along with your internet website.
