TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Pocket Excel works fine for that purpose. You can also use calendar as a
time record, together with a record of what you did. Unless you have more
than two appointments a day, there really is no need for more. If you want
something more sophisticated, I think you may find it on the web.
