iTime

The introduction of Internet Time by Swatch has eliminated the need for time zones and geographical borders. This standard has divided both the virtual and real day into 1000 .beats, with one Swatch beat equivalent to 1 minute 26.4 seconds. This means that 12 noon in the old system is now the equivalent of @500 Swatch .beats.

One of the main advantages of Internet Time is that it is the same all over the world. To achieve this, a new meridian in Biel, Switzerland was created, which is the universal reference for Internet Time. A day in Internet Time starts at midnight BMT and is marked on the facade of the Swatch International Headquarters.

With Internet Time, both the day and night are the same all over the world, and the era of time zones has now been eliminated. No more worries about what time it is where you are and where someone else is located. Instead, Internet Time offers a universal time frame for the entire world.

To take advantage of Internet Time on Windows, a simple application called iTime has been introduced, which will make the Windows tray clock quickly alternate between your local time and Internet Time. This feature makes it easy to stay on track with your schedule and stay connected with others across different time zones.
