Screenshots and more
World Time Manager is not only highly functional it is also great looking and is environmentally friendly! (yes that’s right, read on to find out why!)
The screenshots in this article give you an overview how World Time Manager looks and feels once it is installed. Click on a picture to see it in full size.
Design your own clocks
With so many different clock styles to choose from and the ability to select a large number of color schemes for your clock, you will definitely find a design that suits your style.
Clocks can be analogue or digital, and you have full control what text to display on the clock. For instance if you would like to have just the day of the week instead of the date displayed, no problem.
Just open the clock designer and modify the text settings. Would you rather have no seconds showing? Same deal. A few simple clicks will remove the analogue seconds hand, the digital seconds, or both from the display.
The green World Time program
World Time Manager is environmentally friendly! How can a computer program make any difference to the environment? After all it is just a program. Well first of all there is no packaging as it is available by download only. But that is not what I am getting at.
Have you ever wondered why you need fans in your computer? To remove the heat, sure, but why is there heat in the first place?
Every computer program needs CPU power to run. And programs which are constantly busy running things like for instance your screensaver or your world clock program (yes it takes CPU power to keep calculating and displaying the current time) can use a lot of CPU power. And because nothing is perfect, there is this side effect of heat. Just like your car needs a radiator because it creates heat as a waste product so does your computer.
It takes a lot of energy to create heat and it is a shame if we just have to blow it out the window, or worse get the air conditioning to cope with it using even more energy.
Therefore we have put extra effort into minimizing the CPU power needed by World Time Manager. So, a well written program means little CPU power which means little excess heat and that is better for the environment. Cool, isn’t it?
Power to the people
If you check out the options menu, you will find that there is a setting you can tweak for just about any aspect of the program. This is a very powerful feature you can use if you want more control over how World Time is behaving. Just about every aspect is customizable: the way the world map presents itself, whether and how clocks tell you that the sun is below the horizon, and much more.
Time Travel
Yes that’s right. This is probably one of the most interesting features of World Time Manager. And it is all done without worm holes and Einstein’s theory of relativity.
To fully appreciate the World Time Machine, just imagine you want to ring your friend overseas before she goes to work, what time do you have to ring her? Or imagine you have to organize a conference call across three or even more different time zones. Oh boy, try that the old fashioned way. With the World Time Machine, you simply travel through time until you find a suitable time slot that works for everyone. It is so simple.
