Fun Fact: Swatch internet time actually made an appearance in Phantasy Star Online (the original Dreamcast version). This is the only known instance of Beats showing up in the real world.


Fun Fact 2: This post is the first post to ever be edited in Swatch Internet Time, and will have an accompanying bizarre timestamp.

tl;dr this is a time standard where time of day does not apply, and someone in England and the other Russia will read time the same regardless.

Um...
"There are no time zones, instead we all count based on midnight in an arbitrary location."

I just don't see how is this any different than a decimal UTC, except being in Switzerland. It is simply using a single timezone for everything.

But I am not complaining. I preffer it over broken timezones and I don't really like the partially sexagesimal partially base-24 system.

And apparently it's day/month/year instead of month/day/year.

This is going to confuse me to the point where it doesn't go well, especially if there's no option to change it back.

Tidy found 443 warnings and 8 errors! Not all warnings/errors were shown.

The alt attribute should be used to give a short description
of an image; longer descriptions should be given with the
longdesc attribute which takes a URL linked to the description.
These measures are needed for people using non-graphical browsers.

For further advice on how to make your pages accessible
see http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL.
You are recommended to use CSS to specify the font and
properties such as its size and color. This will reduce
the size of HTML files and make them easier to maintain
compared with using <FONT> elements.

You are recommended to use CSS to control line wrapping.
Use "white-space: nowrap" to inhibit wrapping in place
of inserting <NOBR>...</NOBR> into the markup.
