I'm using the org-mode clocking features (in org-mode 7.9.4) extensively
to document how much time I spent with which task and when.
I wonder how I can export the data (e. g. to MS Excel) for further analysis;
* time consumed by different projects
* interruptions and "jumping" from task to task
* time consumed by tasks with a special tag
etc.
I searched the internet and this list, but I did not find any description
from someone who has already
done that (however I'm quite sure that I'm not the first one with this idea).
Any hints on how to do it or tutorials/reports from others are welcome.
Martin

Have you looked at this section in the manual? I don't use many of
these features myself, but I think Org itself can tell you many of these
things without exporting the data to a separate tool:

Have you looked at orgtbl-to-csv?

Open source is the future. It sets us free.

is possible to obtain statistics using a bash
script and plot by gnuplot, an article about it
in Spanish:
http://www.osiux.com/visualizando-org-mode-con-gnuplot.html
and a graph of each month regarding the same
color for each task over a year
http://www.osiux.com/img/org-task-by-day-2012.png
soon publish a new article in English...
recently created a public repository with some
bash scripts:

Hi all,
I thought I'd share with you one nice thing I figured out recently.
It seemed appropriate to post it as a belated answer to this thread:

So I was interested in doing some of this analytics right inside Org
spreadsheets. At
https://github.com/clange/org-mode/tree/master/clocktable-spreadsheet
please find a self-documenting solution for computing my weekly overtime
balance from working hours logged using the clocking features. The key
to this solution is accessing entries of a clock table from a
spreadsheet table.
I would be happy to contribute this mini-tutorial to Worg. It is
already available under GPL, and I'll be happy to make it available
under any other license you may need. However I have little time and
would prefer not having to learn any complex procedures before being
able to contribute.
Cheers,
Christoph

Christoph,
Thanks for sharing this. I'm just now beginning to explore the ability
of org to provide weekly and monthly reports. I've gotten as far as
implementing the elisp that Sacha Chua shared here:
http://pages.sachachua.com/.emacs.d/Sacha.html#monthly-reviews It works
great but at this early stage, I'd like to explore the features of org
further to develop an approach that works for me.
So I'd love to see a mini-tutorial on worg about what you've developed.
All the best,
Will
