As our team rapidly expanded from one to seven, we hit some issues in tracking time. As a project manager, I needed to be able to quickly see what everyone was working on. At the same time, the existing time-tracking web-apps and programs didn’t make it very easy for developers to enter their time. As with most of our crazy ideas, this one started with “What if..”. “What if it were as simple as twittering?”
We decided to make a time-tracker that worked just like twitter: you record your statuses just like tweets (over IM, or over the web), and you can directly address a project with @project.
We’ll be launching this incredibly useful and simple application soon. Stay tuned for more updates.
ENTP is a consultancy and web incubator based in Portland, Oregon. We make Lighthouse and Tender Support. If you’ve got a project in mind, please get in touch. We’d love to help you out.

I’ve been using time.onrails.org for a long time. I’d love to see something simple and fluid that doesn’t feel like I’m tied with a ball-and-chain to The Man (I’m looking at you, ClockingIT.) Looks like you guys are on the right track.
I have been waiting for something like this for a loooooooong time! Can’t wait!
