Tired of the same old boring digital clock on your desktop? Open a browser window and fill it with this.

The only improvement I'd suggest is to add a line for millenia.

That's pretty neat. Too bad it has to use my computer clock's time ratner than real time.

It's very neat. I'd love it if they expanded it into a customizable application.

Soon there would be tons of people making the equivalent of WinAmp skins for it and adding additional time blocks.

You hit the tip of the iceberg, Eric!

Millenia is good. Decade, century, moon phase, current Presidential Term. Oh heck, let's add the Stardate, too!

I didn't even notice the source of the time. I guess that makes sense, although I suppose there should be a way to hook the script up to the US atomic clock or something similar.

Well, why not? Maybe we could also slide the Jewish calendar in there, as well.

Just curious. What geologic era are we in now? Dang, there's never a good geologic timepiece handy when you need one.
