Thanks for bringing this up. I've explored some answers to this, but haven't settled on anything. I really like being able to focus on one task and have my desktop environment support that as well. > I considered using Growl, but Growl only stays open for X seconds, and takes > up a more considerable part of the screen. Have you experimented with this?

I don't know how to display information in the menu bar. That's beyond my skills. But my answer, which might work well with a separate Space, is to use Geektool to display the currently clocked-in task on the desktop. — Michael
