Wasted Life: Measure how much time you waste on stuff

February 21, 2011

Giveaways, iPhone

Macgasm would love to help you see how you’re wasting your life. This may be the most depressing app I have, but I love it. Wasted Life lets you put in the number of hours you spend doing things, and it calculates how much of your life you will waste doing them.

This app is a really simple yet effective concept. Are you doing a daily commute? Do you always have to go to boring meetings? Do you wonder just how much time you spend on things that may not be all that important to you?

The app lets you add all those things that you do regularly, and actually, it might be a nice idea if on the support site or somewhere in the app they had suggestions of the types of activities you can add. Once you do type something in, you can see just how much of your entire life it consumes.

Of course the app does have the share feature, through Twitter and Facebook integration, but I won’t be using it — I don’t really want my friends and family to know just how much time I do spend tweeting.

There are also chart indicators if you touch the chunks of time to see what exactly is using your life up. There is a bit of science behind it all, taking into account things like the country you live in and life expectancy.

The creator of the app has given Macgasm 4 promocodes to grab this app for free, so be sure to follow the @macgasm twitter account for tweets with codes. The official Macgasm Twitter account will be tweeting the codes at 15:30 EST.
