Makertime is 34 for me (10 minutes later). Are there timezones?

Are there equivalent of months/minutes/seconds?

How do you organise events around it? The event starts at 34.5?

The browser clock I wrote is written in Javascript and runs off the local time in your browser.

I have not implemented those. The idea was to do the opposite of the granular nature of our current time keeping paradigm. To smooth out time, and think of it in larger blocks, the kinds of blocks where hard problems can really be tackled in.

Its precisely not for organizing events, although you could. For example, 35 corresponds to the 8-4PM period on December 20th of every non leap year.

Its time keeping for a small team that just got seed funding as in hardcore build mode, or for people living like Thoreau at Walden.
