Granularity

5.

A suggested pace is to have 5 to 30 activities per day.

6.

The intention of <app>Time Tracker</app> is to avoid micro-tracking so that one does not turn out spending more time on tracking than doing the activities! However, tracking in insufficient detail could result in there being no data which is useful to you a month later.

7.

What should I write in each box?

8.

For simple activities that don't have a project, use the action as the <gui>activity</gui> name and the <gui>category</gui> for the wider context. For example: <input>lunch@work</input>.

9.

For more sophisticated tracking try to caption your activity in one or two words ("tree house", "project x", or similar) and use that caption in the <gui>activity</gui> field. Use the <gui>category</gui> to describe the activity in it's wider context - is it private or work, or something else? Finally, use <gui>tags</gui> to describe your actual action - is it reading or constructing, writing or painting.

10.

This approach will alow you to see how much reading you have done through all your projects (by tag), how much time you have spent in your hobbies (by category), and how much time of all your work in project x you have spent analysing (by activity and tag)

Tips for improving your tracking data

12.

Name activities so that they can be easily distinguished from each other. Activity name is also the only information that appears in the panel. Will you be able to determine what you are working on just by looking at the activity name?

13.

Keep your list of categories small (say, 3 to 7) and pick ones that are unlikely to change over time. Also, keep them generic. For example: "work", "private", "misc".
