What is Internet Time? Do YOU use it? When did you first hear about it?
Internet Time is a new, universal time standard where a day (24 hour period) is divided up into 1000 ".beat" units. One .beat is equal to 1 minute 26.4 seconds.
Internet Time is the SAME throughout the world! Now (they say) all your friends and family around the world can synchronize IM chats, conference calls, and other business and private events according to one time zone!
This new measurement of time began October 23, 1998 but it is just now becoming known around much of the world.
