I am pretty sure there is no way to tell time on Dakka besides referring to posts, correct me if I am wrong though.

Just though it would be cool to have a DakkaDakka clock at the top of the screen. There is a big empty space that I always notice.

It would also be interesting to hear thoughts on how the clock would be displayed, and what kind of options you could have with it. Perhaps this will be something available to DCM?

Some sort of time-zone converter could be helpful.

We used to have a clock but I got rid of it as it took up too much space. There are no plans to brnig it back as implementing it was surprisingly complex due to the structure of the site (dakka is actually three separate sites with different coding styles glued together into one functional site).

There is already a timezone converter - just go to the 'edit your profile' page and look.

Ah, thanks. It certainly has . . . exhaustive options.

What about a count-down to 2012 clock? So we know exactly how much time we have left?

How about a countdown until the next popular apocalyptic theory?

Err, scratch that . . . I just realized GoFenris and I suggested the same thing.

Hey, good job thinking ahead. When it becomes 2013 we gotta be ready for the next theory!

Good teamwork you mean! Go Team Dakka!

How's this? Ignore the rest of clip if desired. It's funny though.
