Mike - agreed this would be great in RescueTime. If you don't specifically need your activity timer to be web-based, there are lots of project management or activity tracking software apps around. An excellent one that is free is MapleXp Express (just Google it). It does what you want, but it isn't web based, and it doesn't have the nice graphing abilities of RescueTime, but you CAN slice and dice the information it collects in various ways, or export it to a spreadsheet for graphing.

What was I doing between 10:00 and 2:00?I'm another person that has to keep a time log (I'm an attorney, please don't hold it against me. I'm a nice one.) I often work for a couple of hours, then realize that although I was doing a lot the last two hours, I'm not sure which client I was actually working for. Every few hours I take the time to jot the time down, figure out how many hours pass since the last time I figured out my time, then try to estimate as accurately as possible what I was doing and who I was helping for that period of time. I generally then just multiply the time by the percentage for each client, and book my time that way.
Your product could help me a lot with this. What I'd like is a "start" field and a "stop" field where you could enter two times. The app could then send back a report that lists how much time I spent per tag and page/application etc. during that time period. It could report "idle" time during that period, too. It would be even better if it could display a timeline of that period too, and show the activity as time progresses. That way if I see some idle time mixed in with a bunch of time spent in MS Word, I can assume that time was "idle" time was probably spent working on the same project as what I was doing in Word. It seems like you are already capturing all the data that's needed for this, it's just another way to display it.
The possibilities that this product offers are endless. Great job so far!
