Review: TimeRabbit tracks hours lost down the Facebook rabbit-hole

August 20, 2013

It's sobering just how much time you can waste, um, I mean, spend on Facebook. TimeRabbit tells you just how bad it is. Install this free utility, and it will track every second (and minute, and hour) you spend on the world's most popular social network. TimeRabbit ticks every second you're on Facebook. TimeRabbit requires little interaction on your part: It really is set-it-and-forget-it software. Once you install it, TimeRabbit automatically tracks how much time you spend using Facebook. And "using" is the key word here: TimeRabbit figures out when you're active on Facebook, as opposed to when you have it open in a browser tab that you're not actually looking at. That's thanks to its code, which monitors your browser's activity to see whether the current URL address includes "facebook.com". If it does, TimeRabbit starts the clock, and the tally grows.. TimeRabbit works with all versions of Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox, and with versions 7,8, and 9 of Internet Explorer. In my tests, TimeRabbit worked seamlessly with all supported browsers, accurately (and sometimes scarily!) tracking the time I spent perusing Facebook.
