You all should get the updated version. I made a silly mistake in the initial version which I now realize left the over a little too soon. Grab the new one for added awesomesauce.

OwlHuntr, if you're interested in some code that could generate PDF invoices from your .clockwork.log files, let me know. I have some code that I think could be easily adapted to do exactly that.

That'd be ace! I just hope that I can keep the size of the file down to a minimum

At the beginning of the year I've started to log my work times in a little day planner. Of course, since I dont have any data from before I started doing this, I can't really say it with certainty but I definitely feel like I'm accomplishing more. I find logging work time to be very motivating, but I can't exactly put my finger on as to why.

I did, however, try this sort of thing before, but always with some kind of software or script, and I never kept at it. It only began working when I started to manually make notes with pen and paper. (The day planer I use has preprinted lines for every half hour, so I usually simply draw the time, which makes it possible to quickly skim through the book and instantly get a feeling of how much I worked in a given week and where in the day that work was concentrated.)

I've more and more began to appreciate getting away from the computer and doing things by hand, using different materials, using pens, pencils and paper, sketching on a whiteboard, pacing around the room etc.
