I highly recommend RescueTime to give you real data on your computer habits, both hours in front of the screen, and a real breakdown of work vs. wasting time vs. entertainment, etc... It has led to a conscious change in how I spend time on the computer.
- sillysaurus2 13y agoThe last time I used RescueTime, it also gave me a nice breakdown on my porn habits as well, and there was no way to filter out that data without remembering to disable the data gatherer each time. So I stopped using it. There's probably a way to do it, but the general creepiness of giving them my intimate data made me not want to use it. (I personally trust them, so this is me being illogical.) EDIT: I just realized, this was 2-3 years ago. That's an eternity, so it's unfair of me to even be telling this story.
- ricardobeat 13y agoHow long ago was that? It ignores adult sites by default, plus you can tell it to ignore any specific activity that shows up in your reports.
- hrktb 13y agoI think the point of the poll is that the time spent looking at a screen is far more than the time spent on "the computer" for a lot of people. Watching TV, looking at a phone/tablet during commute, reading on an e-reader after lunch, going to a theater after work. All of these cumulate as screen time, and it easily goes up to 10~15h a day in total.
