Now I can keep track of time, rates and totals, and brief notes for multiple projects without having to use several applications. Very cool. Thanks for the great tip, Paul. I’m a Timeous convert.

I had actually stopped using Daily Grind because I had some problems with it. Since then I've been using <a href="http://www.onedigitallife.com/2007/11/27/freeware-pic-timeous-excellent-project-timer/" rel="nofollow">Timeous</a>. You may want to have a look at that one too. It's not perfect but it works pretty well. Thanks for the tip, Susan. I had actually stopped using Daily Grind because I had some problems with it. Since then I’ve been using Timeous.

To keep from losing important information, I keep a fake project in that position. I use the Daily Grind too, but I’ve noticed the project on the top sometimes loses some of its info.

I've been trying out all kinds of timer tools, but a widget would be far less intrusive and this one seems to have all the functions I need. I'll definitely check it out. Thanks for the post Paul.
