Submission + - Recommended SAS Time Tracking Company for SMB 1

mrtwice99 writes: I am involved in a small IT company and we would like a better time tracking solution than Quickbooks provides. However, we have pretty specific fields that we need to capture on the time entries themselves: location work is performed, not-billed reason, class/division, and issue/ticket #. That is in addition to the normal fields you would find such as: organization, project, task, employee, notes, etc. Employees should be able to add a customer or project on the fly. Importing/exporting customers, projects/jobs, items/tasks from/to Quickbooks would be very helpful. It would also be nice if the service provided desktop and mobile phone clients that interface with their service. Fields on time entries need to be able to be bulk updated from the admin interface, i.e. I need to be able to change time entries from "unbilled" to "billed" with ease.

I have tried all 10 services that come up on the first page of a good search along with a few others. ClickTime got close, but its really not going to work. So does Slashdot have a suggestion? Building it ourselves is our next step, but we would prefer to spend our development efforts elsewhere.

Education

Submission + - Good Schools with On-Line Masters Program in CS

mrtwice99 writes: I am 27, currently living in Southern Indiana, and am thinking about going to graduate school to get a Master's degree in Computer Science. I would not want to uproot my family by moving, so I have been looking at on-line degree programs. However, I don't want the typical "on-line degree." I would like to attend a respected institution where I am really going to learn something and the name will look good on a resume. Cost is also a factor. So, what really good schools do you know of that offer an on-line masters degree in CS that (preferably) don't cost an arm and a leg.
