Productivity software?

Usha Starchild · 05-27-2007, 12:20 AM

With the work I do Its a miracle I get 1/2 of my stuff done. Between travel times, dumbass people who fuck up, dealing with overseas customers and the gym time is really precious.

Im just wondering if anyone has any cool idea/sortware that helps you keep track of your time better. I know a pen and paper work, but it doesnt make graphs and pretty stuff for me.

Is there a plugin for your browser that keeps track of your surfing habits? For example, how much time to I spend on FOH.com?

Thanks in advance.

I would never want to know such information. I'm in total denial of the amount of time i spend here.

I think if you have to think these thoughts, you spend too much time surfing and not working.

Well a large part of my work is spent online surfing, checking forums, keeping up to date with new product developments etc. Not to mention dealing with customers, our websites, suppliers websites etc...

It sounds like pageaddict would work perfectly for what you want.

I spent an entire afternoon last week setting up my new Google Gadgets. Just create a Google account and you can weed through hundreds of new stuff that's out there, all on one page.

Some stuff does make productivity better. Some of it is definitely a time waster. But I like the Google Notebook, Calculator, TV Guide, Weather, News, Games and the local Movie Listings showing which theatre films are playing in. It'll keep you busy forever.

get a PDA and some third party scheduling software.

I had a palm with "Agendus" on it, it was quite handy. Deatailed scheduler, and good task list. I also had a project manager that was sorta like a heirarchical checklist thing, called "Progect"

As far as software... not really sure. If you waste time and surf the net on FARK.com and FOH or whatever, that's more of a personal issue.
