Spy On Yourself

This is an interesting idea. TimeSnapper takes screen captures of your desktop at a configurable interval, allowing you to play back a period of time to remind yourself what you worked on. The idea being to help you fill out timesheets, project notes, etc.

To answer the questions that jump to my mind, they claim it doesn’t impact performance, uses 1 to 5 meg of memory and allows you limit the space the images take up, either in total capacity or days usage.

“With TimeSnapper you can play back your week just like a movie. You can play it at any speed you like, and jump in at any time you like.

When it’s time to fill out that dreaded timesheet, TimeSnapper is a savior. No need to tear your hair out trying to remember where all the time went.”
