Travel Technology - World Clock software

for those of you that have them, which world clock software do you use on the desktop (Windows)? I need an easy lookup of a time in a certain place type program so that I don't call someone at 3am in the morning :p

also, I'm looking for the world time clock v1.1 plugin for trillian if anyone know where I can download it, that would be great. Please do not say the trillian site as the link there is dead.

WorldTime from pawprint.net

Works nicely.

I recently tested sevreal of these in searching for one that fit my requirements. I settled on Smart Time World Clock (sic?).

But then I installed Firefox and the FoxClocks extension - and no more need for separate worldclock software. ^ ^ ^

Very nice program, thanks!

thanks for all the responses... I chose Foxclocks... simple interface and does not take up much space.

I use ClockRack (http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1759,10202,00.asp) from PC Magazine

My own favorite (with ticking seconds and no ads thanks to our tax dollars)

Do you need to be online to use Foxclocks? If so and that is a problem, a utility that allows you to run as many different city clocks as you like on your desktop is WinZones by Extend Softward (http://www.extendinc.com/winzones.htm) I have been using this since Windows 95.

Simple, elegant, small.

wow looks nice but only 95/98/NT is supported...

I got foxclocks and have a few cities at the bottom of my screen. Good stuff. But now popups and some links I actually want to see come up in non-expanding thin vertical windows. Not good stuff. Anyone else get this?

The thing is so dead simple that they have never changed it. It has been running just fine with XP Pro. I called them up when XP came out, and they said to go for it.

I downloaded the FoxClocks. It is very nice, but only shows when a browser is open as far as I can tell. I will keep it, but use the WinZones for when I am off line.

I like the World Time Server website.

sounds good... I've downloaded and tried it... nice but the $35 price tag is kinda steep.

I use this one, setup a personal page and it shows only the places you want to see.

works great!

I guess you're right. When I bought it I really needed it (I had been waking up people in Australia, Europe, and the U.S. far to often - added when I should have subtracted and vice versa. I was mortified by my arithmetical ineptitude. :o )

Since that was in 94, the cost is down to way less than $4.00 a year. ;)

Seriously, I see that Fox Clocks continues to compute time differences when a browser is opened even if you are not on line. A good deal if it does what you need.

You can open the FF browser when offline and FoxClocks will still work. No need to be online.

You are quite right and this bears repeating ... see the post just above yours! ;)
