What was I saying about seeing RescueTime everywhere? Just after I posted my Very, Very Snap Review of RescueTime, I found this on Lifehacker: it’s an interview with the creator and is a particularly interesting read. I recognise a huge number of the things he says about why the software was created:

Do you ever have those days where you know you’ve been working hard all day, but then can’t remember what you did by the time 5pm rolls around? We found ourselves in that position way too often and it was really frustrating. It felt like hours of our day were falling into a black hole. I could usually remember some things I did, but trying to account for a full eight hours always ended up with a bunch of blank spots in it. I ended up feeling really guilty about it, figuring that the missing time must have been spent screwing around on Twitter or reading blogs or something.
