I like the precise timing and automatic totaling, but the desktop app seems too tied to the online service (e.g., you have to go to the website to create clients and projects). I searched around for a free desktop app that might work, but only found a few that looked good. Right now I'm trying out <a href="http://rachota.sourceforge.net/" rel="nofollow">Rachota</a> and it seems pretty good so far. The interface is a little annoying, and it isn't specifically geared towards client/project work, but it might be good enough.

I'm also using http://toggl.com to track my time now - which does a lot of this totaling for you. This is tough stuff, and it's difficult to compromise, but it's necessary to stay in business.
