I've many of my people tagging content in my site. I'd like to review all those newly entered terms of any vocabulary. Is there any easy way to do so? I understand there no author/date time entry when a new term is added.
I know one crude method. I can remember the tid from yesterday and display all terms greater than it if I want to see today's entry.
You could add a field to the term which saves the current date when saved. Use the hook_taxonomy_term_insert() for this.
I think there is no other information on the term itself than the tid.
What about creating this field (that saves the current date) like Lance suggested, and creating a View that displays taxonomy terms, + your field and Sort them.

If you want something quick and dirty with MySQL and don't need complex access control to this information (no one but yourself needs to access the data):
TIMESTAMP with default of CURRENT_TIMESTAMP to the table (in D6, its term_data). I don't know what the PostgreSQL equivalent. It will then automatically get the timestamp for when the new record is created.I think Lance's answer is a good approach. However, you could also use the message module (https://drupal.org/project/message). Messages are fieldable entities. You would:
Create a message type for tracking new tags (i.e. tag_added, or similar)
Add a field to store the tag created.
Use hook_taxonomy_term_insert() to catch the event and create a new message (you could probably use a rule instead if you prefer)
Build a view to show tag_added messages (or use the built-in, generic view that message ships with)
This is a more generic approach that would make sense if you also want to track other events or activities on your site (new users, new content, modified content, etc). One advantage is that you'd also collect the user info for each new tag.
