Sometimes other users on my computer use my account. I want to know what did they do on in easy way with GUI. I dont want to read logs and such things.
Are there such tools? If yes, please names.

2You should not let others use your account - just saying. Give them their own account or let them use a guest account. – Takkat Sep 24 '12 at 14:06

Yes there is a Tool .
GNOME Activity Journal (formerly known as GNOME Zeitgeist) is a tool for easily browsing and finding files on your computer. It keeps a chronological journal of all file activity and supports tagging and establishing relationships between groups of files.
Open your terminal and type as sudo apt-get install gnome-activity-journal to install .
Open your unity dash and type as activity-journal and click it to open .

Note that, the user can always delete his information with the same tool, even disable it. – Anwar Sep 26 '12 at 04:08

Yes. but is making it too complicated. I think, just creating a new user profile is the best – Anwar Sep 26 '12 at 07:47
