C# .NET equivalent to PHP time()
<p>I am working with C# .NET and PHP and need some standard way of recording time between the two. I want to use seconds since 1970 = <code>&lt;?php echo time(); ?&gt;</code> because I'm already using some of php's cool functions like: date() &amp; strtotime() in my project. Is there something in .net that is equivalent to PHP time()?</p>

<p>Thanks in advance.</p>
