  1. I need 5 co-signatures for my UK petition before it will be reviewed and published:

    "End 'Spring Forward, Fall Back' and stop changing the clocks twice per year"

    petition.parliament.uk/petitio

    Edit: It was rejected because it was a duplicate of another petition that was approved after I sent mine in! Here's the current one: petition.parliament.uk/petitio

  2. [Playful Technology] shows how to remote control what an analog clock shows using an ESP8266 microcontroller.

  3. Looking forward to putting the clocks forward 1 hour tonight, moving to British Summer Time and the much lighter evenings that follow. This particular clock, mounted on the outside wall of Wells Cathedral in Somerset, installed between the C14th and C15th.

  6. If you live in the UK and haven't already done so you need to put your clocks back an hour. When you've done that you can read the 10 facts about time zones:

  7. Good morning, by the way (or afternoon, night, evening wherever you are). The best thing about the weekend is that the clocks change here. Can we just leave it alone and stop doing this now? It's archaic.
    Apparently when I was very small the UK trialed remaining on British Standard Time (GMT+1) for 3 years but eventually a free vote decided against keeping it in place.
