Keeping track of your billable hours is an essential task for any freelancer. Just as important is keeping track of non-billable hours, to see how much work you’re actually putting into a project, and to determine if you are utilizing your time for maximum efficiency.
跟踪您的计费时间是任何自由职业者的基本任务。 同样重要的是，要跟踪非计费时间，查看您实际上在项目中投入了多少工作，并确定您是否在利用时间来最大程度地提高效率。
Tracking time can be a pain in the butt experience, and can itself become a time sink. Below is a round up of 4 web applications that each take their own approach to time tracking. Let us know in the comments your experience with each of these apps, and any others that you use for keeping track of your time.
跟踪时间可能会增加对接体验的痛苦，并且本身可能会成为一个时间沉没。 以下是4个Web应用程序的摘要，每个Web应用程序都采用各自的时间跟踪方法。 在评论中让我们知道您对这些应用程序以及用于跟踪时间的其他应用程序的体验。
We recommended Harvest as part of our 10 must have tools for communicating with clients last month, and with good reason. Harvest is the crème de la crème of time tracking applications, taking a traditional approach to managing your time.
我们建议Harvest作为我们上个月必须与客户进行沟通的十大工具中的一部分，这是有充分理由的。 Harvest是时间跟踪应用程序中的佼佼者，它采用传统方法来管理您的时间。
The application is flexible, supporting a range of entry methods (web, phone, desktop widget, etc.), and has a number of helpful features, such as expense tracking, and great reporting features. Harvest is probably the best suited app in this round up for teams, and offers something most time tracking apps don’t: integrated billing.
该应用程序非常灵活，支持各种输入方法(Web，电话，桌面小部件等)，并且具有许多有用的功能，例如费用跟踪和出色的报告功能。 Harvest可能是此轮最适合团队的应用程序，并且提供了大多数时间跟踪应用程序所不具备的功能：集成账单。
RescueTime isn’t like other time tracking applications on this list — rather than manually enter time you spent doing each task, RescueTime is an application you install on your computer that automatically keeps track of what you’re doing. How much time do you spend using Gmail? How much time are you spending working on things in Photoshop? How long are you typing away at code in TextMate? RescueTime can answer those questions.
RescueTime与列表中的其他时间跟踪应用程序不同-RescueTime是您手动安装在计算机上的应用程序，它可以自动跟踪您在做什么，而不是手动输入您花费在执行每个任务上的时间。 您花了多少时间使用Gmail？ 您花费多少时间在Photoshop中进行处理？ 您要在TextMate中键入代码多长时间？ RescueTime可以回答这些问题。
For that reason, this isn’t a suitable app for tracking every bit of work you do for the purpose of invoicing clients (though it can be useful in making sure your manual time tracking is kept accurate). There are, however, great reasons for using RescueTime. One of the best is that it can actually boost productivity. According to RescueTime, their users “tend to see a 9% average increase in time spent on self-identified productive activities over the first eight weeks of using the service.”
出于这个原因，这不是用于跟踪您为客户开具发票的所有工作的合适应用程序(尽管它对于确保手动时间跟踪的准确性很有用)。 但是，使用RescueTime有很多原因。 最好的之一是它实际上可以提高生产率。 据RescueTime称，他们的用户“倾向于在使用该服务的前八周中平均花费9％的时间用于自我识别的生产活动。”
Remember: time is money.
记住：时间就是金钱。
From well-known developers Amy Hoy and Thomas Fuchs Freckle is all about keeping time tracking as simple as possible. There’s virtually nothing to configure with Freckle, so you’re up and tracking almost instantly. The idea with Freckle is to remove as many barriers for users as possible, so tracking time is about as simple as it can get: you type in how long you did it, who you did it for, and what you did.
来自著名开发人员的Amy Hoy和Thomas Fuchs Freckle致力于使时间跟踪尽可能地简单。 Freckle实际上没有任何配置，因此您几乎可以立即启动并跟踪。 Freckle的想法是消除对用户的尽可能多的障碍，因此跟踪时间尽可能地简单：键入您执行了多长时间，执行任务的人以及所做的工作。
The app has all sorts of nifty, useful features, such as the app’s ability to understand time entry on your terms. Freckle makes intelligent guesses, so if you enter “15,” it guesses you meant 15 minutes, whereas if you type in “2,” the app assumes you probably worked for 2 hours. You can override the guesses by using m, h, or d operators during entry.
该应用程序具有各种精美，有用的功能，例如该应用程序能够根据您的条件理解时间输入。 Freckle会做出明智的猜测，因此，如果您输入“ 15”，则会猜测您的意思是15分钟，而如果您输入“ 2”，则该应用程序会假设您可能工作了2个小时。 您可以在输入过程中使用m，h或d运算符覆盖猜测。
Freckle also remembers tags and clients you’ve entered in the past, and suggests them as you as you type. And that’s almost the entire app. Like we said: Freckle keeps things simple.
Freckle还会记住您过去输入的标签和客户，并在您键入时建议它们。 这几乎是整个应用程序。 就像我们说的那样：雀斑让事情变得简单。
Like Freckle, BubbleTimer is also very simple. But BubbleTimer takes a very unique approach to time tracking that we haven’t seen elsewhere. Rather than typing in the amount of time you’ve spent on a task, or choosing from a drop down menu, with BubbleTimer you fill in bubbles that represent 15 minute increments. For anyone who has ever taken a standardized multiple-choice test in school, this method of data entry should be instantly familiar.
像Freckle一样， BubbleTimer也非常简单。 但是BubbleTimer采用了一种非常独特的时间跟踪方法，这在我们之前没有见过。 无需输入您花费在任务上的时间或从下拉菜单中进行选择，而是使用BubbleTimer填写代表15分钟增量的气泡。 对于曾经在学校参加过标准多项选择测试的任何人，都应该立即熟悉这种数据输入方法。
BubbleTimer asks users to set time goals when setting up new task, allowing you to keep track of not only how long you spend on a project, but whether you completed it within the time you set aside. And if you don’t? Well, it ends up feeling a lot like failing a test, which might just train you to be more efficient in your time management.
BubbleTimer要求用户在设置新任务时设置时间目标，使您不仅可以跟踪花费在项目上的时间，还可以跟踪是否在预留的时间内完成了该项目。 如果不呢？ 好吧，最终感觉很像是测试失败，这可能只是在训练您提高时间管理效率。
