Rob,

I'm not sure that you can insert an empty, but you could always:

INSERT INTO myTable(timevisited) VALUES (GetDate())

On a side note, you may want to consider dumping this information to a text
file and then performing a bulk import--if you don't need to have this data
real-time.  Doing it this way will improve performance in situations where
you have a large number of visitors.
