>Does anyone know of PIMs/outliners providing timekeeping/reporting features, i.e. reporting on how much time one spent on a certain project?

I’ve seen this functionality in Personal Brain; it’s part of the metadata it maintains and one can actually sort items by the time one spent focused on them.

An alternative would be some kind of flexible timesheet software but it should be really easy to integrate so that it doesn’t become a separate timecost center by itself.

Stephen, as a lawyer, any suggestions? I’ve seen that most timesheet software (at least the ones I’ve seen) targets the legal profession.<

Sorry I didn’t get to this more timely. I haven’t used the time-tracking software for lawyers. It’s one of the few things I prefer to do manually. I noticed though that the pim InfoRecall XP (both the 2004 and 2005 versions) has integrated timing.

[IR is a program I haven’t used much, because of the reports that its very buggy. (In my very casual testing of the 2005 version, I haven’t actually found bugs myself. I’m wondering if more bugs are apparent with other versions of Windows, as it’s ostensibly optimised for XP, and perhaps not tested much on earlier Windows.)]
