    Finally got around to posting about #Swatch #BeatTime. It was all the rage at the turn of the century. Perhaps it's overdue a comeback!

    @linkert adding time zones to 'beat format' has limited sense. What do you think ab adding longtitude? Or decimal longtitude

    I believe the human time format should inform ab day and/or night 'progress' not the shift from the midnight. So it shouuld be sunshine/sunrise divided.

    Ok imagine:

    Swatch Internet Time/.Beat time re-imagined as simply "Beat Time" without the dumb dot and with UTC type time zones. I would be on BT+1 — or "beat +1".

    Absolutely no damn daylight saving allowed.
