To be quite honest, I don't find it useful at all. For the past several minutes I've been trying to come up with a use case for it, but can't because I don't find myself needing a stopwatch whilst using my computer, unless you're in a research facility. Maybe if you can automate the stop watch and start/stop it according to certain actions, along the lines of RescueTime, then it could be a bit more useful. As far as premium plan, you have quite a ways to go to convince me to pay for your service. My iPhone stopwatch is sufficient for my needs and I don't see a reason to use your service.

Maybe you were going for a specific use case that I'm not aware of, and if that's the case, let me know.

Thanks for the honesty. Most people don't use stopwatch at their computer.

I created a mobile version of the website for use on your phone. It's better than your other stopwatch if you want to keep track of your times.

Don't many mobile phones include stopwatch applications? I know my Sony Ericsson from 2004 had one.

Having neither an iPhone nor an Android phone, I do not know whether they include stopwatches, but I would be more likely to use a native application version than a mobile website.

The iPhone does have a stopwatch.

I clicked on the tour and noticed the graphing feature - this should be on the front page. To me, seeing progress / time is more useful than a stopwatch app by itself.
