Need a time management solution [closed]

Question

I'm looking for a pc app that runs in the background and collates simple information about applications im running. Hopefully including the opened project (whereby visual studio includes the title of the project in the window title).
Also if it could include periods of inactivity that would be useful.

It's intended to help me fill out the dreaded timesheets!

Answer 1

Sounds like the exact situation that TimeSnapper was designed for.

From the website:

What is it?

TimeSnapper is an Automatic Screenshot Journal

It runs in the background of your computer, taking screenshots of your desktop every few seconds all week long.

Note: I'm not connected to these guys, not even as a customer. Well, I do read the blog. :-)

Answer 2

Check out Rescuetime

Answer 3

I rather like Slife, it gives me enough information to make timesheets.

Answer 4

Try out ProcrastiTracker

Answer 5

Try http://ptm.sourceforge.net/ It tracks how much time is spent in each application but doesn't keep track of the window titles. You can also create your own tasks. It will prompt you anywhere from every 10 minutes to an hour to see if your still working on the same task, if you don't click the still continuing button it will go to idle.
