    Is very easy to read

    (and why cant it be a widget for vista as well) you know, it does have them
  • pixelsoup, on 10/11/2007, -8/+625Upside down text is NOT easy to read.
  • fober, on 11/14/2007, -9/+468This clock is a conspiracy funded by my chiropractor.
  • Splizxer, on 10/11/2007, -3/+429having 10:04pm in the bottom right corner is pretty ***** easy to read.
  • ACrazyGerman, on 10/11/2007, -15/+203Yeah this is really the easier in fact at first look its rather hard.
  • Orangutan, on 10/11/2007, -6/+173i like my clocks to just say in large letters "the time is now"
  • LikwidFlux, on 10/11/2007, -6/+159Looks very cool, but I have to say it's not that "easy" to read. I mean it's idiot proof, but you have to contort your neck just to read hours, minutes, and seconds for most of the time.
  • underrun, on 11/12/2007, -2/+154Neat, yes. Easy, no.

    (Buried as conflict of opinion.)
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -4/+132I had to tilt my head about 10 different ways to read it all. How the hell is this easy to read?
  • zweben, on 10/11/2007, -2/+120I believe this is the easiest clock to read ever:

  • MeNaCe942, on 11/12/2007, -3/+98it is right up there with the binary clock for ease of use...

  • PueSi, on 10/11/2007, -1/+86Who still uses Screensavers? That's such a waste of energy, just shut the damn monitor off!
  • afx1, on 10/11/2007, -1/+82if by easy you mean hard then yes, quite easy

    see pixelsoup's comment above
  • Saiing, on 10/11/2007, -1/+74"Very cool clock that I can't wait to use"

    You can't wait to use..... a clock? Dude, you *really* need to get out more.
  • Hickeroar, on 10/11/2007, -1/+71How so? It took me 5-10 seconds just to figure out what it was trying to do. A straight-up digital clock will always be easier to read than that crap...
  • chriscohoat, on 10/11/2007, -8/+73none of these are easy to read for us often-discriminated against colorblind folk.
  • DiggDawgg, on 10/11/2007, -9/+68Not really any easier than this:

  • rebopper, on 10/11/2007, -8/+65http://yugop.com/ver3/stuff/03/fla.html

    Easier yet.

  • sharkbaitbobby, on 10/12/2007, -1/+40Pretty cool, but doesn't seem that practical.
    It reminds me of this:

  • reed311, on 10/12/2007, -3/+41You've got to be ***** me. This is about as easy to read as a sun dial.

  • Dumbledorito, on 10/11/2007, -1/+36Caesar si viveret, ad remum dareris.
  • sally00, on 10/11/2007, -1/+34Easy? I beg to differ...
  • SBelyea, on 10/11/2007, -2/+34This is perhaps the most difficult clock I have ever tried to read. What is wrong with an analog clock? Or even a fuzzy clock? https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1742
  • ACrazyGerman, on 10/11/2007, -8/+34@Myself
    Wow I gotta reread my comments before I post them and use the edit option.
  • idonthack, on 10/11/2007, -2/+27I bet you guys have no idea what he said, you're just digging him because you think latin is cool.

    ------------------------------------------------

    That clock doesn't even work! I was staring at it for 20 minutes and it didn't change at all! Buried for inaccuracy.
  • inactive, on 10/11/2007, -2/+26This clock is not the easiest to read EVER.

    And Im sick of everything being the best EVER.
  • inactive, on 10/11/2007, -5/+28What does this have anything to do with mac users??
  • Dumbledorito, on 10/11/2007, -0/+22Perhaps the article submitter has one of those ball-bearing clocks in the plastic case. By comparison, this COULD be easier to read.
  • Bob042, on 10/11/2007, -0/+21Well it would be easy, so long as you know both the first and last years in existence.
  • RocketSeason, on 10/11/2007, -0/+20Best comment to a comment EVER!
  • quick1, on 10/11/2007, -1/+20If Caesar were alive, you'd be chained to an oar.

  • TheMattrix, on 10/11/2007, -0/+19Best comment EVER!
  • bobbob1016, on 10/11/2007, -1/+17I think it looks cool too, reminds me of the Hitch Hiker's Guide To The Galaxy menu system, well, the new one's menu system.
  • gregdogum, on 10/11/2007, -0/+14http://blog.pixelbreaker.com/upload/polarclockv2/polarclock.html A bit updated I think...
  • inactive, on 10/11/2007, -1/+14I've never had such a hard time reading the time, and I've read a binary watch.
  • billybibbit, on 10/11/2007, -0/+13...and there go the next 2 hours of my life
  • A14049752, on 10/11/2007, -2/+15"You're not supposed to READ the text... Haven't you noticed that the bar get bigger ? That the colors change ?"

    Not supposed to read the text? So, you mean to tell me that you can look at the clock, know which is the minute hand, what color (and exact size) 23 minutes after the hour is? Sorry, the text is MUCH easier to read for most people than the color or size of the bars. Without the text, it's still pretty easy to read, granted....just even more so WITH the text.

    On the note of the topic...this really isn't the easiet to read EVER...try not to be so dramatic with your headlines, eh?
  • PhireN, on 10/11/2007, -0/+13@billybibbit don't worry, you can always set your system clock back.
  • kavery, on 10/11/2007, -2/+14Dugg down for yet another inappropriate use of the word 'EVER' in the title.
  • KSUdesigner, on 10/11/2007, -4/+16All you gotta do is look where each bar stops. Now picture a regular dial clock. The hands on the dials would be exactly where those bars stop. I don't think this is any easier to read than a regular old clock though.
  • Javlington, on 10/11/2007, -1/+12This is only fun on Sunday, December 31st, 11:59:59pm, and even then it only lasts a second.
  • DephexTwin, on 10/11/2007, -1/+12@mrbuttersworth

    Okay, Herbert Kornfeld.
  • LordByr0n, on 10/11/2007, -0/+11A clock that telepathically tells you time? I wouldn't even have to open my eyes in the morning.
  • Incidents, on 10/11/2007, -2/+13Real life version:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kOk588Bg6PY

    They are VERY similar in that sense.
  • inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9hmm. if they faded out the seconds bar when it goes round to 0 it would look a lot smoother
  • LucasVB, on 10/11/2007, -1/+10Agreed. The only thing easier than a digital clock is a clock that telepathically tells you what time it is.
