Love the callout to the Chosen.js library...one of those fantastic plug-and-play interface libraries that makes it so less painful to add a nearly essential feature to forms/data-selection.<p>edit: Added clickable link to chosen.js homepage<p><a href="http://harvesthq.github.io/chosen/" rel="nofollow">http://harvesthq.github.io/chosen/</a>
Time tracking is one of those things that I see constantly being reinvented. Whether it's spreadsheets that get emailed, completely custom solutions, or one of the numerous services available, few of them actually provide anything new.<p>What I want is a product that tracks my time for me. WakaTime is probably the closest I've seen. If only it worked outside of my text editor and automatically submitted my timesheets for me. I'm supposed to submit timesheets weekly, I probably do it closer to monthly (and I know I'm not the only one). I have enough trouble remembering what I did yesterday, let alone last month.
Self-plug: our Zhen HRM system includes timesheets / time tracking in addition to vacations, reports, etc. Time tracking can be done through clicking Start / Stop when you are working on projects.<p>You can find the system at the link below, and there is a fully functional free demo you can try out.<p><a href="http://zhen81.com/product/zhen-hrm/" rel="nofollow">http://zhen81.com/product/zhen-hrm/</a>
I've been using <a href="http://www.paymoapp.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.paymoapp.com</a> for some time now and it fits my needs to track time and also do project management (tasks and tasks lists). The desktop widget is awesome, I know how much time I've spent working or doing something else.
I'm surprised that they developed a brand new time tracking tool. From my limited experience, it seems Deltek Time & Expense is the most popular time tracking application in the government / associated contractor space.
There's one simple way I've found to keep up on your time reports: you don't get paid if you don't turn in a timesheet.<p>The places I've worked that had this policy didn't have any issues with tracking time.
