Introduction

This personal time sheet and task managment software started out as a tool that we used internally, but as we added an increasing number of features we found it may have wider appeal to some individuals or small companies.

The core part of the program is based around a colorful table of the month, with a separate row for each day, and color-coded bars being used to record time spent on individual tasks. Times can easily be added and dragged about.

Increase Productivity

As time progresses and you build up a profile of your working patterns, areas will appear where you may find you can improve your working strategy.

Self employed contractors may well appreciate the ability to set a minimum number of working hours a day to try to achieve over the course of a week.

Employers on the other hand may wish to investigate their employees work inputs in a similar manner.

Record your Performance

The system is quite flexible, and also supports a "scoring" system - useful for recording fatigue or other variables. Time spent on tasks, and score values can later be graphed and plotted against one another for comparison.

Some observers may question the value of this type of software - but to the individual or team looking to achieve maximum effort and maintain motivation across a project the software may well prove priceless - after all, this is why it is installed on all our PC's!

Always Present

The software can be added to your Windows startup folder and will happily live quietly on the system tray. This makes it perfect to double up as a reminder and alarms system.

Extra goodies include recording of the durations in which a PC is turned on for per day, or is connected to the Internet. For the curious - this makes for an interesting graph to study!

Wallpaper Integration

Another neat touch is the display of deadlines and "hours of work remaining this week" optionally on your desktop's wallpaper.

Because you regular view your desktop during a typical PC working day, you are regular aware of the countdown to a particular deadline, or how hard you need to work for the rest of the week. All this is fully customizable.

Other Uses

Some of our users even use the software to log their entire time spent on any task - be it eating, sleeping, watching television, socialising or taking part in exercise.

Clearly, if you think you are becoming a couch potato or perhaps are not spending so much time with your friends anymore - you can check your logs to find out!
