Cheri703Question for my independent contractor comrades: is there a preferred way of tracking/billing/invoicing time? Ideally something android based/integrated?16:58
nigelbCheri703: Have you looked at FreshBooks?17:18
nigelbIt's pretty good. I don't know if they have a mobile ap.17:19
nigelb*app17:19
nigelbThey seem to have an iPhone app and no android app :(17:22
Cheri703hmm...ok. I will just need something fairly basic "I worked x hours at agreed upon $x, pay me"17:23
nigelblet me check of zoho has something for it.17:24
nigelbCheri703: Check out zoho books.17:29
nigelbThe only problem with zoho books is you can't take your data out.17:29
Cheri703ok17:36
Cheri703:s17:36
Cheri703that's not so great17:36
* Cheri703 was helping husband with his new phone too :)17:36
nigelbYeah. "CLoud" services aren't great :(17:37
nigelbThese are times when I just use google docs.17:37
nigelbOr excel + dropbox.17:37
Cheri703yeah, found a time tracker that exports .csv and straight into google docs if I want17:37
Cheri703which is awesome, but need to figure out how to send invoices17:37
Cheri703(as an aside, I am finding AWESOME stuff for my new phone, I have a lot more options now that I have a phone powerful enough for widgets and such17:38
Cheri703)17:38
JanCthere are several time trackers in the repositories AFAIK (although I never used them)18:10
JanCbut some of them might have android versions / additions18:11
Cheri703taskcoach has a nice time tracker, but unless they recently changed their mind, no android app (/me goes to check)18:21
Cheri703nope :/18:21
=== JanC_ is now known as JanC
JanCI guess the android (or other smartphone) part should only register time/task, while the desktop part should do the aggregation & possibly the invoice part18:39
=== Cheri703_ is now known as Cheri703
