- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -5/+185Where do I get (9/9)?
- Jon211, on 10/10/2007, -2/+134Dugg for having infintely recurring 9s in the calculation for 7.
- thewebdev, on 10/10/2007, -43/+118Let's make this the most dugg down comment in Digg History ---- EVERYONE LICK MY BALLS!
- killerofkiller, on 10/10/2007, -0/+68I'd rather have a clock that tells me the time in radians
- LowROI, on 10/10/2007, -2/+49He meant "where do i get one?" Apparently you don't get wit either.
- m3mn0n, on 10/10/2007, -4/+51Math nerds rejoice.
- joltjake, on 11/03/2007, -4/+48a clock that takes basic algebra skills to figure out the numbers isn't exactly my idea of "the ultimate geek clock"
- adrianmonk, on 10/10/2007, -1/+43A clock that tells the time in radians? Now you're just being irrational.
- jerk1off, on 10/10/2007, -1/+43Each hour has three nines. That is why.
- pazoned, on 10/10/2007, -2/+43Thats not a sundial!!! (I thought it said "Ultimate GREEK Clock" :(

This is a geek clock... - Tivor, on 10/10/2007, -1/+37Do you even read what you type?
- MrMysterious, on 11/03/2007, -3/+37This is not a geek clock, this is a math nerd clock. Don't confuse the species unless of course you get lions and tigers confused or you yell "GET A HOMERUN" at a football game.
- IvanB, on 10/10/2007, -0/+33http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1055/1233573378_c48a8d0b54_o.jpg Mirror it, in case it goes down. :)
- compwizz, on 10/10/2007, -4/+34Actually, its (9/9)^9. If you notice, all the hours have 3 nines in them. The glare makes it hard to see though.
- stevenmu, on 10/10/2007, -14/+42Awsome idea,poor implementation
For e.g. for '3' why have the +9 -9, it's entirely redundant as any geek would know - mal5305, on 10/10/2007, -0/+18it's a great conversation piece. except when you have to explain how it works a dozen times a day...
- killerofkiller, on 10/10/2007, -0/+18stop trying to be smart...
- ozydingo, on 10/10/2007, -0/+16Well you just need to know what a factorial is. You don't need to be a geek for that.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+15How is that in any way "geeky"
- kitchung, on 11/03/2007, -0/+14Then it'd be a regular clock w/ 1,2,3,4,...
- ncdave101, on 10/10/2007, -0/+14Uhm, because all the positions have three 9's in various mathematical arrangements?
- cyclox, on 10/10/2007, -1/+15damn you learned ! in 3rd grade? what school did you go to?
- p858snake, on 10/10/2007, -3/+17pfft Neowin wont go down.
- Kedyn, on 10/10/2007, -3/+16Of course if you say something like that, you're going to get dugg up.
- calibration, on 10/10/2007, -0/+135+4 = 9
Coincidence?
I THINK NOT! - TheAcclaimed, on 10/10/2007, -1/+13Sounds like the school for pompous douchebags.
- tehpwnrate, on 10/10/2007, -2/+13.9 + .9 > 1
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+11I prefer my clocks in binary
- Zackypooh, on 10/10/2007, -3/+13That is a nerd clock, not a geek clock, I am insulted! Buried as inaccurate. =P
- StaticThunder, on 10/10/2007, -0/+10Its called a factorial.
- asciiforever, on 10/10/2007, -0/+10The factorial operator means take this positive integer and multiply it by each positive integer less than it (roughly). So it's (3 * 2 * 1) - (9/9).
- mh348, on 10/10/2007, -1/+11Here's somemore clock's
http://www.funnyspace.co.za/content/view/183/1/ - po43292, on 10/10/2007, -1/+10It's just annoying.
- ozydingo, on 10/10/2007, -4/+13Screw that, where can I get 9?
- bob_the_alien, on 10/10/2007, -1/+10I'm just glad it's not another binary clock or watch, I almost didn't click this link thinking it would be yet another one.
- BHSPitMonkey, on 10/10/2007, -1/+10It was discussed sometime after you dropped out of high school.
- soil, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8As soon as I buy 9999999999999^0, I'll get 999999999^0 for you too!
- SSCrow, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9Its more like a Nerd Clock than a Geek clock, imo.
- Bob042, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9Why have the 9th root of 9 to the 9th power? More nines.
- HappyScrappy, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9You can't really see it due to the specular highlight, but I bet that 1 is (9/9)^9, thus using 3 9s. Alternately, they could do 0.999(bar over last 9).
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8How does 5 o'clock work?
- MasterThief117, on 10/10/2007, -3/+10Where can I get one?
- jjremy, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6I'd digg you up, but you're sitting at +9, so I won't.
- nipterink, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7you're supposed to say that number louder than the others too.
- oneoverzero, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6yes he can, repeating means it goes on for infinity, i know he didn't make that expressly clear, but learn math.
when you cant differentiate between two numbers, then what separates them? - Kunnalingus, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7Um, it's all redundant. I think the point is that all of them (except for 1) use three nines.
- swisswuff, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6This is a Triple Nine Society clock, http://www.triplenine.org
Here is where you get this stuff: http://www.cafepress.com/triplenine/ - adrianmonk, on 10/10/2007, -3/+8Simplification, yeah. The "Who's On First" Abbott and Costello routine would have been a lot simpler and easier to understand if they'd given clearer names to the baseball players, but would it have been as funny?
- nubnub, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5My old math teacher use to have one of these
