RescueTime (YC '08) releases aggregate data for the first time
- prakash 18y agoInteresting. Could Outlook & Word be #1 & #2 due to the fact that people open it at the start of the day and close it at the end of the day? So, they might not use it all day but since it's open all day, it shows up as #1 & #2? Any comments from the Rescue Time folks?
- rms 18y agoI think Rescue Time only counts something when an app has focus.
- run4yourlives 18y agoEven more so, I think it only counts if there is activity in the window (ie kb/mouse)
- run4yourlives 18y agoPeople use outlook all day. It's the number 1 work email client by far. Same goes for word, given a job type.
- aquarin 18y agoI use RescueTime only on work (Windows) and do not use it at home (linux), so my stats look similar despite the fact that i spend ~40% of my time on linux applications.
- run4yourlives 18y agoI've got to say RescueTime is one of the better new apps out there in terms of filling a need for me, and working well. I love using it to make sure I get in the amount of time I want to on my projects, it's simple and intuitive to use. I just wish they'd drop that wacko support site... :-) EDIT: of course now that I say that, I can't bring up the dashboard. :(
