I see you have a weather feature that predicts temperatures for the day. How about showing that info on the clock itself, maybe as color coding? Some ideas for other useful info that you can hang on your clock: (1) tide info indicated by a

Nice work! Getting the moon info is a challenge, isn't it? My first sun clock was written in C++ in the 1990s. I decided to stick with a 12-hour clockface mainly because people are so much more familiar with them. The concept for my S

Tip, you can rotate and zoom the steampunk clock - try zooming in on the gears! Click the "Show interface" at lower left to see all the options or switch clocks.

Do you love weird clocks like I do? Check out my https://steampunkclock.com ! That's weird for you - based on the spirograph concept. There are actually three clocks in there; you can get to the others directly at https:

Check out https://www.steampunkclock.com - a concept inspired by a drawing toy called a spirograph. I originally coded it in c# over 10 years ago, but was able to port to the web via mostly vibe coding, and even go 3D! Brass, co

I downloaded Antigravity this morning and was able get this Mobius Clock debugged in a few minutes - then for the heck of it added a whole list of features! I'm blown away by how fast you can work. Yes, there were a series of problem

Very cool! I also love clocks, especially weird ones, and recently put up this 3D Moebius Strip clock, hope you like it: https://www.mobiusclock.com

If you happen to have an old or spare iPad or tablet, you can open my mobius clock page in a browser and set it on a shelf (plugged in of course). Kind of like a weird wall clock...

Just added a new feature: a 'Fast Mode' button to temporarily speed up the hands, which helps visualize how the slow-moving parts work, how the hour indicator moves along the edge. Would love feedback on the implementation.

Check out my project at https://www.MobiusClock.com : A 3D WebGL Clock on a Möbius Strip that shows 24hr time on a 12hr face. The hour indicator follows the edge of the strip, thus must make 2 turns to return to its starting po

I created a Weird Clock that shows the local sunrise and sunset within a conventional 12-hour clock face. This normally would only work on a 24-hour clock face, which is kind of unfamiliar to most people, so I developed a way to show a 24-

Here's a link to a Google Photos album with some scenic photos I took using Ultra HDR, mostly in Yosemite last week. For this to work you will need to view it in Chrome on a device such as a fairly recent phone - I believe android or

Ultra HDR - I predict it will cause a revolution in photography. This isn't the old HDR that was all about capturing a wider range of brightness; it refers to display of a wider range of brightness. It's built into Android 14
