Metric time, eh? That would be interesting, although it would take some getting used to.

And since when were there 15 hours in a day?

 

[edX]

or 25 hrs to a day for that matter?

I have an account on Slashdot!!! And I responded to that article too!!! See if you can find my user name, it's almost like looking for Waldo.

Metric Time = Metric *ss-load of bull*h*t.

No, it's @914

Sorry, swatch already invented metric time 4 years ago. http://www.swatch.com/alu_beat/fs_itime.html

Nope... I just created another time system. It's currently x[1251], or x[1251(389)] to be precise.

My time system: xT. There is 2000 Ts. Every T is 43.2 seconds. Before converting, remember to convert the current time into military time.

 

[xaqintosh]

mine is quite different from the swatch one, and it incorporates a calendar also. check the site.

Ok, reality check.

Swatch is not metric time. xT is also not metric time.

xaq, your system is real metric time, but it has too many new names. My system is located here. It doesn't include a new date system. Just time.

10 hours in a day. 100 minutes in an hour. 100 seconds in a minute.

Simple.

Free to download.

Metric Time.
