Subject: An Org-based productivity tool
Date: Wed, 10 Oct 2018 18:15:53 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87efcxaibq.fsf@mbork.pl> (raw)
Hi Orgers,
I am making an Org-mode-based tool to help boost my productivity.
I am constantly fighting a losing battle with distractions. I figured
out that showing me how much time I spent goofing around would help me
stay on track (being a math geek and a gamer, my "let's break my
yesterday's score" and similar instincts kick in immediately, too). So
far, I have these in my prototype:
- a notification (recurring every n seconds) that I'm not clocking
anything,
- some stats about what I spent my time on and what my efficiency (i.e.,
percentage of time I spent working from the point when I started
counting to now) is,
- info about how much work I need to do in order to meet my set goal,
and how much will it take if my efficiency remains constant,
- a warning when my efficiency is lower than a set value, and info about
how much work I need to do to bump it up to that value.
Here's an example output (with some partially faked data):
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
39min of your workday (10%) has passed, and you have 5h 31min left.
work - 30min spent (12% of your goal of 4h and 75% of your workday so far)
3h 30min remaining (4h 39min with your current efficiency of 75%).
You need 9min of uninterrupted work to get back to 80% efficiency.
eating - 4min spent (10% of your workday so far)
bathroom - 2min spent (5% of your workday so far)
unclassified - 0min spent (0% of your workday so far)
Unclocked time so far: 3min.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
My questions are:
- is anyone interested in something like this?
- are there any features you would like to have? (I have some ideas,
too.)
- does anyone have an idea of how to /name/ this project?
TIA,
--
