I tried to make this. On The Job is the ultimate Time tracking tool from the same developer that created Overflow.

NLMA interview with the man behind Growl, Adium,...: Chris Forsythe

My main brawl with open source applications in the end always boils down to the same thing. They're ugly and often not very intuitive. I'm going to get mail about this one, I know... but I'm right! I just don't see an open source operating system getting the same level of consistency as OS X for instance. And the advantage of a consistent OS is that apps that run on that OS naturally inherit that consistency. But once in a while I'm wrong. And boy am I glad I'm wrong about this app. App name: Growl Developer: Growl Team, led by Chris Forsythe.

Some people know a winner when they see one. Some computer/digital lifestyle companies know a great OS feature when they see one. And then go and implement it in their OS. Features such as CoverFlow, Dashboard, we're all clear on which company I'm referring to here. Anyway, apparently they sometimes forget to include a specific feature. I still don't know whether I like that or not.
