What the heck is that icon supposed to be?

What is it not? It's not a clock. That's the important thing.

When we began work on Time Tagger, the one rule we set for ourselves was that there would be no clocks. Every other time tracking program in existence uses a tired click-the-clock metaphor. Hate it. So no clocks.

So what is this icon? Ever read A Wrinkle in Time? There is such a thing as a tesseract my dear. Our icon is a two-dimensional representation of a three-dimensional projection of a four-dimensional hypercube, also known as a tesseract. The tesseract represents the fourth dimension. And what's the fourth dimension?

Time of course.

Yeah, it's every bit as cheesy as a clock, but animated tesseracts look cooler than animated clocks. Here's what happens to a tesseract when you rotate it in the fourth dimension. We have no idea what that means.
