I agree time is a concept, but to the question that it is an attribute of the universe, might I suggest causality as a possibility?

Causality - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Is Causality "real"?.

Also, I wonder if there may be a problem with how we are talking about time, relativity suggests it doesn't make sense to discuss it as a thing seperate from space.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.
