With RescueTime.com, track all of your computer habits (both online and offline).
I first came across this website while searching for a to-do list manager. I started to pass it up but figured it looked well developed so I should give it a shot. Here are my current stats for this week (updates automatically every week...how awesome is that? You don't have to make your stats public, either...but what do you have to hide? haha!)
Thus far, it seems to be fairly accurate. I only compared on day's worth of information that I had logged vs. what Rescue Time had on record. The information is logged, or so they claim, "Forever". Whether or not this is true, I do not know. Your stats are grouped by week, not day. There's also an option to add this information into an RSS reader or have it sent via SMS to your phone (why, I dunno)...The information is recorded by a frugal client that sits quietly in your system tray and sends information every half hour (you can change it at 30 minute intervals to whatever number you like) to the RescueTime site/database via SSL (requires port 443 access -- this shouldn't matter to most users). You can also turn off logging with two clicks anytime you want.
Give it a try: RescueTime.com.
