A while back I put together a simple Excel spreadsheet that I could use to record time I spent on various cases. It calculates time on one-tenth hour increments and provides a total. It's not elegant, but it works, and I've used it for billing my time when I'm away from my office network. I haven't found anything like it on the web without having to pay money.
So, I put a copy of it on my website, and for a limited time (depending on hits) I'll leave it up free for anyone to download.
To use it is fairly straightforward. To quickly enter the date, click a space under the Date column and press "Ctrl" and ";" at the same time. Voila, today's date is entered.
To enter the start time for a task, click a space under the Start column and press "Ctrl" "Shft" and ":" at the same time. The current time is entered. When the task is done, do the same thing in the space to the right, and end time is entered. The elapsed time, to the next 1/10th of an hour should appear in the next column.
If your task is less than a minute, the elapsed time will be zero, but anything between more than a minute and up to six minutes will show up as 0.1 hr, and so forth.
Here's the link.
You have to have Excel for it to work. And if you are familar at all with Excel, you'll be able to sort and filter the results, make subtotals, graphs, whatever.
