Increase Your Productivity!!
Just uploaded a project I have been hiding away for awhile. My amazing name for it is Productivity Timer.
I read somewhere that you could increase productivity by writing down what you do every 15 minutes. I saw this and immediately decided to make a program for it.
This program stays in a small box with a timer, well out of the way until the timer runs up. At that point it pops up with a small box. You then enter a short summary of your accomplishments and continue. The program writes what you say into the directory you designate labeled with the date. Each line inside is labeled with the time and the comment.
Whether you run it from the files or from the jar it has two arguments. The first one is required, it is the folder you want to keep the logs under. The second is optional. It is the amount of time between polls in minutes, the default is 15.
I cleaned it up and put it up so that it is ready for other people to use, though it is still fairly messy. The method of initializing all the parts that have circular dependencies on eachother is pretty messy as well. I might come back and revise this sooner or later.
All the source code can be found http://code.syfran.com/productivTim/ including an up to date jar file that can be run with java -jar ProductivityTimer.jar MyDir. It can also be checked out with svn co http://code.syfran.com/productivTim.
