Distinguish between IMing with different people (friends vs. coworkers)
It would be useful if you could distinguish and tag who you're talking to in instant messenger, rather than just that you have instant messenger focused. (The same way that RescueTime can tell what website you're on rather than just that you're in a browser.)
I use Pidgin to connect to several IM accounts, one mostly for work and one mostly for personal stuff. Sometimes when I'm on IM I'm chatting with my husband (NOT productive) and other times I'm really hashing things out with a colleague (very productive).

I’m more productive when I turn off IM but it's so hard!

Inappropriate?I wanted to be able to do this as well with my programming application. I got around the problem by intercepting what the RescueTime client was sending to the server and taking some of the title information and changing the application name to be more specific. I'd get time for pidgin_husband and pidgin_colleague accounting seperately. If you want to give it a try, send me an email at andrew at lunde dot com.
I’m feeling useful.
