Are you about to make an International long distance phone call? Are you planning
a trip to a foreign destination? Are you preparing for a web cast or online meeting?
Are you looking for a free clock for your own web site or blog? Just want to know what
time it is? The Internet can bring locations around the world together, but with each
place having different times, World Time Server is here to help!
Why depend on World Time Server?
1.
has the right time for more places than just major cities! Instead
of limiting our time data to a select list of cities, we start with country borders
to define our time locations. Where needed, we add more detail to divide countries
into their proper state/province/territory borders. We even document smaller exceptions
as necessary to cover the places other sites avoid! That's why we make "Any time,
anywhere" our motto!
2.
uses our own self-maintained database with accurate adjustments
for Daylight Saving Time
or Summer Time. With no official place to get this data (such as the UN), many Fortune 500 companies
depend on our vigilant research and our contacts with governments, embassies, newspapers
to keep up with the ever-changing Daylight Saving Time rules around the world. You
can depend on us, too!
3.
has the best world time converter. Pick
the one exact place and exact time your event will occur and we'll give you a link to email or post on your website. Everyone who follows the link gets to pick their
home location to compare their time directly with yours. No big list of world cities to distract anyone, no math required.
And if you aren't sure of the best time
to hold your next event or meeting, try our cool Meeting Planner.
4. We even have a mobile version of
available for your iPhone or other smaller screen devices so you can use our site
anywhere.

More information about this web site
How did we get started with this? We were working on a project for international
travelers and needed time zone data to complete the job. We expected it to be easy -- surely someone,
perhaps the United Nations, would have this data available. Instead, we found that
no one really knew the right data for EVERY location. We looked in books, atlases,
and web sites and found nothing we could depend on. The available resources either
avoided areas that were difficult to determine, provided disclaimers that they were
"not guaranteed to be accurate" or provided information that was just
plain wrong or outdated.
Our answer to finding accurate information was to do it ourselves. We spend hundreds
of hours of exhaustive research to compile the data this site is based on. We continue
to maintain and check our data to ensure that it remains accurate in the future.
