I'm using org-mode to track my time on projects and todo items, but I'd
also like to start tracking time I spend on things such as my email,
reading rss feeds, etc. I'd prefer to continue to use org-mode for that
so that all my time tracking is in one place with one system.
My current thought is to have a `diary.org` file that I keep tasks that
don't clearly fit in any of my projects. The file would look something
like:
* <2009-02-20 Fri>
** Notes for the day
blah blah blah
** Activities
*** DONE Checking email :email:
CLOSED: [2009-02-20 Fri 18:56]
:CLOCK:
CLOCK: [2009-02-20 Fri 17:56]--[2009-02-20 Fri 18:56] => 1:00
:END:
*** DONE read rss feeds...
and so on. I could then archive the contents of the file monthly.
I'm wondering if anyone has any better ideas or sees some particular
flaw to this approach. I thought about creating a daily repeating event
for things like email, but then the clock section would eventually get
huge, right?
