I have beta tested it and it is a nice program. I even LIKE the "disruptive" way it goes about tracking time.
However, I've found a free one that does much the same. Personal Time Manager (look for it on sourceforge). It's kinda-sorta not as slick, but it's free.
Also, as I was beta testing, the support email address kept bouncing mails back to me.
- jamesbritt 18y ago"Also, as I was beta testing, the support email address kept bouncing mails back to me." Really? That's no good. :( I apologize; we thought we had that all in place for the beta. Was it info@getjotbot.com, by any chance?
- MoeDrippins 18y agoNo, support@. The only one I could find on the beta web page, although I could have missed others. And yes, PTM is a windows app, but it is .net so conceivably mono could help/work with other platforms. I'm not a .net coder by trade, so I don't know of the difficulty of cross development issues with mono. PTM also tracks use of applications by CPU time (or some such), along the lines of RescueTime, so you can see what apps you've actually used during whatever task. I don't use nor need that feature, and that might also be something that can't be reliably ported to other platforms.

It's also a Windows app, no? I just downloaded it (ptm.sourceforge.net), and the zip file only has an exe. I develop on Linux, my partners are on Macs, so we made JotBot cross-platform. Thanks for giving JotBot a try, though, and I hope PTM works well for you.
