It looks good!  I like the images (buttons and header background) and the
CSS colors.  I also like the clock feature.  The time is automatically
calculated avoiding hand calculation and input errors.  Other time keeping
systems make you key in the time manually.  One note.  I had a situation
with several clients a couple of years ago where I charged different rates
for different task types.  For example, I charged a different rate for
testing than I did for coding or DBA tasks.  I created a table (called
emprates) that had a 1 to many relationship with the employee or user record
and a link to the task or task type.  That way when a task is chosen it
automatically uses the rate associated with it.  This is also a desirable
feature for many law firms and accountants.  I have seen several lawyers and
accountants use this method.  Anyway, sorry for rambling.  For what it's
worth, my (humble) 2 cents worth.
