What is it?
Slim Timer is a timetracking application which enables you to measure how much time you spend on each task. In a webbrowser window you can click a task to start tracking it and click another task to switch activities. It lets you print detailed reports of the time spent on tasks.
History and current usage
SlimTimer was created by Richard White. He has previously worked at Kiko, an online calendar. SlimTimer was launched in 2006 and is currently gaining popularity.
Difference from other applications
There are many task management applications available, but none offer such detailed time reporting. When you need minute by minute reports then get rid of the Excel speadsheets and get SlimTimer.
Look and feel
The website is clean and quick. The window you use to keep track of your tasks is as minimal as possible. It has a second counter and uses colors to keep track of the active task. It's easy to add another task and there are keyboard shortcuts available.
Registration process
Registration requires an email address which needs to be confirmed. Other than that it is hassle free. You can sign up at the front page and customizing date format and timezone is easy.
Pricing
SlimTimer is free for now but in the future, paid accounts are likely. These will be for extra services such as support and encryption. The developers have promised a free version will always be available.
Recommend
SlimTimer is great for independent and freelance workers. You can track the time you spend for clients and provide them with a detailed overview. For individual task management without reporting there are other solutions with more features.
