If you hate timesheets...

RescueTime is a Seattle based start-up and – if like a lot of us, you’re a frequent binge-surfer and constantly distracted by web ’stuff’ you just have to see – you should be worried! Essentially RescueTime (the product) is a productivity management tool that sits in the background and watches what your doing online. It records time spent using applications, working on documents and – of course – web surfing.

Available as a pay-as-you-go licence the feedback and blog buzz is impressive and if you work on a freelance or contract basis this little application should pay dividends.
