Time is a very intriguing thing to me also. I can't explain what it really is, but there are many different theories as to how time behaves, whether or not it exists, and/or what it's nature is. Some people say that it's only an illusion created in our minds, some say that we are living in a timeless universe, some say that time flows, some say that we are only observing slices of the whole of time, and there are a multitude of other ideas that can't remember right now. Time is also considered to be the 4th dimension (and there may be even more dimensions).
To answer the OP, I don't think that our technological advancement and our knowledge has anything to do with time itself. Rather, these are just something that we have been getting better at as time goes on. The reason is because it's also possible for our knowledge and our level of technological advancement to go the other way (i.e. decline as time goes on). So, there is no direct and physical connection between time and human progress, in my opinion.
I think that time and space are defined by the entities themselves and sometimes within the entities they are located in. Essentially, time is relative.
