Hi, I'm a web developer and I hate logging hours because I'm lazy. So, I'm
interested in tracking my time spent on projects based on what applications
or documents I was viewing or editing throughout the day . I'm looking to
see if zeitgeist can help me do this.

For example, at the end of the day, I want to see time spent in my text
editor editing files under a given directory for a project, or time spent on
a given web domain in the browser.  I imagine I can pull the data from
zeitgeist in some way and aggregate it based on patterns that I define. But
the main question for me is whether zeitgeist can track usage based on when
the window for a given document was in focus.   If, so, that's great!    I'm
pretty comfortable with python, so any tips on how I can get started doing
this would be appreciated!
