Internet Beat time, or as some know it, Swatch Beats, is a clock which displays time in 'Beats'. A beat is 1/1000 of a day with no time zones. Everyone on the planet sees the same time and as such can be used to coordinate events, chat sessions, or just look cool. This application supports side viewing which displays decimal beats. Feel free to suggest changes and improvements.
Lazy Clock
This utility app displays the current time using natural language phrases instead of precise numbers. It aims to reduce clock-watching stress by presenting time in a more relaxed, less minute-to-minute format.

- Reduces clock-watching stress
- Alternative to traditional time formats
- Simple and intuitive interface

Lazy Clock gives you a natural language view at the current time. For example, rather than 8:47, you see "Quarter Til Nine". This can lower the stress of watching the clock as it slowly ticks from 8:47 to 8:48 and so on, since minute-to-minute accuracy is rarely necessary in daily life.
