"Computer usage awareness and avoiding RSI"
Version: Workrave 1.9.3
Pros
Flexible settings allow you to manage the "nag" level of this helpful utility. Easily rivals commercial similar commercial applications.
Cons
Focussed primarily on typing and mouse usage, could be enhanced with passive computer use awareness.
Summary
I've used commercial programs and found Workrave an excellent free substitute. It's helped me manage and recover from RSI issues, and keeps me aware of my computing time and behaviour.
