TimeSprite

It is always said - to err is human and nobody is perfect as it is in human nature to commit follies; but the wise person is the one who learns from mistakes and goes ahead and works in a more augmented mannerism. Most of us own computer systems at home and usually spend hours on it by simply playing online games or chatting on social networks without any productive results. Hence, in such cases we do not realize the outcome of the situation unless it is pointed out to us and that is done in the form of parental vigil or as a professional check when official resources are utilized to do unproductive activities. A personalized check can also be done now with the help of TimeSprite 1.0.8 that provides ample features to preview computer usage.

TimeSprite consists of a neatly organized interface with the main options placed at top panel and the main screen displaying the usage of the computer illustrated in the form of a pie chart and also includes the time duration of the usage. The user can measure and track all activities done and refer to it at the end of the day to see the effectiveness. The user can view the total report as it captures the title of the activity window once in a minute and that defines its working pattern. To maintain privacy when the user does not want to record time, the program can be paused and during that time nothing would be recorded. Further, it also gives the option to delete any information that has been recorded if you fear any privacy threat.

To conclude, TimeSprite 1.0.8 works as an efficient tool to record and measure computer usage and hence it deserves accolades for its utility value and hence gets a rating of four points owing to the constructive working and overall effectiveness.

Track how much time you spend on different activities on your computer. Once a minute, TimeSprite records the title of the active window on your computer. You can then view a report of how much time you spent on different activities. Similar titles are automatically grouped together to provide a summary of your time. You can also define your own groups to refine the report.
Privacy
Keeping a record of your activities on the computer raises privacy concerns. TimeSprite is intended as a personal time management tool, rather than as a way for others to monitor your activities. TimeSprite has several features to address privacy issues:
* The TimeSprite Monitor can be paused at any time. When it is paused, nothing is recorded.
* You can define your own activities in the TimeSprite Monitor. When one of these activities is selected, time is recorded against that activity, instead of recording the active window. Recording of user defined activities continues even if you are not using your computer.
* You can search and delete information that has been recorded. You can search for records by time and/or records that contain specific text. This allows you to remove data that you did not want recorded.
* TimeSprite does not record keystrokes, or any contents other than the title bar from other windows.
