I have never set up a project and I've been using the tool for about two months now. I DID, however, tweak the categories so that my ratings are accurate. For example, it's a big deal when I put out a newsletter or blog, so I set those sites to +2. It's important for me to tweet regularly, but Twitter IS a time suck, so I've made the website itself a -1 and Tweetdeck neutral at 0. For me, it's more about knowing where my time is going (wow, I check email a lot -or- I didn't realize that wikipedia was such a huge time suck for me). The best thing to do when you create an account is do the general ratings at the outset. For example, I set news & opinion sites in general as a -2 and reference sites as a +2. Every now and then, I might need to tweak something to make it accurate, but usually I just turn on my computer and don't even think about it. For me, it's actually been a pretty motivating way to stay on task. I love the program. I have never set up a project and I’ve been using the tool for about two months now.
