I found this analog clock I like:
I like the following things about it:
- It's big enough for me to see it from across the room
- It's local to my computer. The clockface changes to the next minute at the exact same moment my digital display in the lower-right corner does under Windows XP.
- Because it is based on local computer time rather than network time, it should work even if my Internet connection is down.
- I use it to time myself when doing exercises from the other side of the room.
- I use it to set the current time on an old analog clock I own that runs on one AA battery. While I can easily use a digital clock to set an analog clock, I like setting my analog clock with an analog clock that has digital accuracy. For whatever reason, I find using an analog clock to set an analog clock more natural.
I'm grateful that someone bothered to make this clock.
I've not tested this clock extensively. However I assume it is based on local time bacause of what I see. To know for sure, I'd have to peak under the hood and look at the actual webpage code to confirm that this is true.
