It’d be nice to show schedule times according to browser’s timezone. Or a countdown timer at least. Im still not sure what Australian time it’d be.

- senectus1 4y agoabout 8:30pm WST (Perth time)
- InvaderFizz 4y agoCountdown timer is on the video. Currently sitting at about 6.5hrs.
- _trampeltier 4y agoYes, we really need something better for global timing.
- hericium 4y agoCoordinated Universal Time (UTC) serves this purpose.
- sgt 4y agoThat's easier if you are close to UTC. Most australians have no idea what UTC means.
- nuker 4y agoAnd what day, today or yesterday, am, pm…
- gspr 4y agoAre you saying that understanding an UTC offset of 2h is significantly easier than understanding one of 10h?!
- _trampeltier 4y agoFor human yes
- senectus1 4y agoIts been tried... I actually had a watch with it built into it once. everyone I tried to convert to it used to look at me funny and back away: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swatch_Internet_Time https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swatch_Internet_Time
- MrDresden 4y agoThat it has been tried as a marketing gimmick of a watch company does not exclude more serious attempts from trying.
- senectus1 4y agoI'm down for that... and with the prevalence of smart watches with custom faces etc it should be super easy to do and spread. throw in some phone widgets and outlook addins and the world will make it work I'm sure
- wumpus 4y agoI have both the watch complication and a menu-bar app on my Macs, but then again I'm an astronomer who works in a world-wide collaboration.
