hi,
great hack: on 20.05.2001 at 358? 40' NET with IE but not working for netscape 4.76 :( |
*sigh*
Swatch has already had an internet time thing going on for years... they even have watches displaying it, why try to get used to yet another format? To read more, click here. |
And how many ppl use it?
Who spends the money for such a watch? Are there any programs which you can run on your PC to see the Swatch Internet Time? This project is FREE! |
Sure there are converters and programs for the internet time (did you even check out the site I provided the link for?). Even some popular programs (like T-Clock) use it :)
Imho, I think this is just another attempt to try to launch a global clock. Swatch didn't seem to be able to pull it off very well (at least not yet), but at least they went as far as advertising it and even commercializing it by creating watches that actually display the time in both formats. The one you're using is probably going to get burried very soon if they don't get any support. Swatch is just a little bit bigger than them, hence the popularity. But who knows, I like the idea of the 360' clock a lot better. Counting in 'beats' (Swatch's name for its internet time format) is a bit hard still, but I'm starting to get the hang of it, especially since I have the time format displayed in my task bar ;) It takes time to get used to new things. We (here in Europe) are soon going to switch to the Euro currency and that's gonna be hard enough. If we have to start modernizing our time and mesuring formats as well, I think we're all going to feel lost pretty soon... Great hack anyways :D Didn't mean to critisize it in any way. Just wanted to mention that there's another format out there worth taking a look @ ;) Pe<|ce. |
Here in Germany the conversion to EUR is the easiest I guess! :D
1 EUR = 2 DM, easy! ;) And the time.... Well, a few weeks and I know it by heart! LOL |
Speaking of the World Time hack... I pointed this out once before, but didn't see a response to it. The system is flawed. Right now for me, it is 3:54am, Eastern Daylight Time. What your hack says is correct in this regard. But it also says the time in GMT is 8:54, and this is wrong. 8:54 is 5hrs later than 3:54; that's simple math. But because GMT NEVER goes on Daylight Savings Time and Eastern Time DOES, right now GMT is only FOUR hours later than my time, not FIVE.
The problem is that the country of England, which is in the GMT time zone, goes on DST while the actual time zone does not. So your hack also says that London (as part of GMT) is 8:54, which is correct. England goes on DST, and is always five hours later than Eastern time in America. But GMT is never on DST. So even in Greenwich right now, it is not the same time as GMT. Right now Greenwich is GMT +1 hour. Yes, the city the time zone is named after is not the same time as its own time zone. It's confusing I know...but trust me on this even if you don't understand. |
I understand what you say, but can't see what that has to do with the New Eart Time!
It is always meassured in 360° and is the same all over the world! So what is your point? |
When I posted that, I had confused in my head a statement you made earlier about the MSN hack, that you had released it...for some reason, I confused that statement, and the fact that the world time zone hack was also being talked about, into you saying you had released the world time zone hack, which I now see is not one of yours. So although what I said is true, it should have not been addressed to you as it was, and I'm sorry about the confusion. :)

LOL
No problem! :) :) :) |
