My actual goal is to spend about twenty minutes a day VERBing.
Right now, the number I’m tracking is “number of twenty-minute VERBing sessions.” But really some days I do more than twenty minutes and some days I do less, and so I’d like to make it finer-grained and track “minutes spent VERBing.”
So what I really want, to cut down on friction, is integration with a timer app. I push a button when I start VERBing, push it again when I stop VERBing, and the number of minutes elapsed is added up automatically and added to my Beeminder goal.
How might I do that? Do any of the services with existing integrations offer a feature like this?
One complicated way to do this is to use Toggl, and then to use Zapier to integrate Toggl with Beeminder. That’s what I’ve done for a huge number of “minutes spent VERBing” goals.
This is why I really want full toggl integration; it would save me a lot of manual data entry (and also enable a bunch of interesting combination beeminder goals that are too tedious to manage now)
