Data

Each line represents one day and each colorful block is the most foreground app running at the given moment. Black areas are periods when my computer is not turned on. Seeping patterns (or lack of them) and time of holidays and travel (longer gaps) can be therefore easily identified.

Application activity. Each color is a different app.
Keyboard hits. Brighter colors = more typing.
Mouse clicks. Brighter color = more mouse activity.

Tech

All data was gathered using Tapper - a small OSX app logging my application usage written by Dean McNamee. It was later visualized by me using Plask environment.
