Changing from GMT to BMT (Internet Time)

[Luke O'Connell]

Hello there,

I have been searching for some weeks now, for a way to
change the Windows system time from GMT (example 1:02am)
to BMT Internet Time (example @155 beats).

I have tried third party programs, but these always just
cover up the existing time. For those of you unfamiliar
with BMT, it basically divides the day up into 1000
beats, to enable effective time management on the
internet. More information can be found at
http://www.swatch.com/internettime.

Thank you in advance, any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Luke;
Sounds like a PC (Politically Correct) crock to me.
Looks like an advertising ploy to sell watches.

Go here, maybe they'll sell you something.

Here, this one's free.
Show Internet Time (SIT) is a freeware utility that displays the current Swatch Internet
Time in your icon tray, and has a built in time conversion tool.
This is a simple program to display the current Internet Time in your taskbar icon tray

I never heard of this BMT Internet Time bojive
6 minutes ago. It took me less than that
to find the free download. You can convert 6 minutes into
whatever units you like.

Hope this helps. Let us know.

Exactly. A day is still a day no matter how you slice it up. If you have
bad time management skills, some crackpot scheme won't fix anything.

Swatch is still around? I thought they went bust in the 80s...

Michael;
:o)
I've noticed your name on the newsgroups.
I've been racking my brain. I think I knew a Michael
Cecil in Colorado, but I can't remember anything about him.
The name sure seems familar.
