I spend all my time in Emacs so I implemented a similar thing there. Been using it for, hmm.. a decade now? Org-mode includes clock in/out features and can display this in either the modeline or frame title (or both). I did the frame title because it's basically unused space otherwise. I used to use this in conjunction with the Pomodoro method. I don't need to use that these days, though. I can easily add a task to any project, or the currently active one, without breaking my flow at any time. I recently added an "immediate" task that will instantly clock me in for those things that randomly come up during the day. The nice thing is I get a complete breakdown of how all my time was spent during the week. I need to report on this for current job so it's a win/win. This is also a good example of why I use Emacs. I hacked this together in a few minutes and been using and building on it for years.
