I have been using jrnl for over two years now, and it has made my life really easy. I can have multiple journals, add metadata to my entries and do a search on that. I have managed to define my own metadata format and use some functionality of the system to quickly filter on that. But it is nice to see your app, as it is somehow similar, although a little less powerful, and also written in Python

Ugh, 2 months ago our VP wanted to get us to start logging our time. He gave us an Excel sheet to track it in.... I just wonder how long until he forgets about this and lets us get back to normal. I dont mind time tracking, as long as someone will look at it and react to the metrics. Ive never been able to tolerate writing something just for the sake of writing it knowing it will never be read.
