Tagging ftp sites and app file directory structure
Any way that Rescue Time can track finer detailed information would be a big help. Two examples from my own experience:
- I use cuteftp to do a lot of html and css editing on web sites live on the server. I do this for clients web sites (work) and my own (personal). I'd also love to be able to track how much time I spent on each client's site in cuteftp. Woul dit be possible to assign tags to the time spent in cuteftp dependent on the server that I was connected to? I imagine this would be soemwhat similar to the way you can tag whatever web site you visit via a browser.
- Using other apps, for example Photoshop or Dreamweaver, I'd love to be able to track how much time I am spending on each client's work. Would it be possible for RescueTime to see the directory structure of the files that I have open in the current app and apply tags to the time spent in that app dependent on the directory they are in. If it could be nested, that would be even better. Say for example I have a "work" directory with all my clients jobs in. If I am editing a photoshop layout for client xyz which is in the directory /work/xyz/layout.psd I would love to be able to apply the tags "work" and "xyz" to the time spent on these files.

Inappropriate?Cool idea, Neil-- this is definitely one of our most popular requests. All three of the founders got their web start in agency work, so we know what a bear it is to understand which clients are taking up time....
Stay tuned-- it's one of our highest priorities.
I’m happy
The company thinks
this is one of the best points
