Hi Pierre,

I have noticed that you have started adding time tracking to IQ. I have always wanted to have a system that can track the time of different projects and that also can track my daily productivity and tell me how much time I have left to schedule, duration

time, overage time. There is a program that is called "Time To" which is a great timing program for daily to do lists but sucks for projects. If the sophistication of "Time To" could be added for daily and project lists, then it would blow the lid off of my

productivity and would be extremely valuable.

thanks

david

I'm curious about this topic because this is a weak point for me (I started a thread lately asking about how others do their time-keeping What do you use for time-tracking & how do you use it (esp. IQ))

I was wondering David what you find especially good about 'Time To' ?

(There's not much info on their site about features. Ah, I see they have a free version.)

Hi Tom,

I use time tracking for my daily schedule when I get busy. I also use it to monitor how long projects and objectives/ milestones are taking.

Time To is an amazing timed "to do list", it will tell you how long the events are supposed to take, how much time is between events, how much unscheduled time that you have, the expected duration of the events, the actual duration, and a recurring item list so that you don't have to keep inputting needless items over and over. It is the best "timed" to do list that I have found.

The biggest weakness for the software is the ability to assign time to projects for project management, it has a very simplified project tree list that is unwieldly and unresponsive.

I highly recommend it for personal or business to do lists, it will give you a new perspective on time management but if you are looking for something for projects then this is not the program.

IQ is very responsive and is a great software for taking a look at different "views" of projects, as was Ecco. It would be great to combine those features with the timing aspects of "Time To".

Hope this helps
