It's a nice software, simply stick a small yellow sticky note on your desktop (it's not big just flashes when it's time to moce onto a new task or when something is due). It really helps with sticking to a deadline, and i even use it within projects, mark where i should be at what point of the projects time line. =) I’m on my laptop right now, but on my work desktop I have those yellow note things.

Or was it just that to get time tracking you have to pay? I actually use a custom app I wrote that's very, very similiar to Taskpaper that integrates with some of the more popular online invoicing systems like Blinksale. I did that mostly because I need something that sits in my Windows tray and allows me to *quickly* toggle a timer on/off between tasks. I'm always on the lookout for better ideas for time tracking.

Same thing in terms of being text-file based. I'm not using it to track time spent but it does a good job of tracking/scheduling todos with task completion and showing overview of projects... Of course you have to drink the emacs kool-aid to use it... How about org-mode in emacs? Same thing in terms of being text-file based.
