One very easy way to improve your timing is to play with a metronome, drum machine, etc. ALL THE TIME. Even when you just noodle around...that's probably when it's most important.

Recording over yourself (with a click of course) is also an excellent idea, but a bit less accessible.

Also, remember that it is much harder to play in time at SLOW speeds. Try slower speeds and work up. It seems stupid and boring, but you will improve RAPIDLY.
