SL time is the same as Pacific Coast time in the USA. Any "world clock" that can show you the time in San Francisco is displaying SL time.

Easiest way is to probably look in the top-right corner for the SL time then check a clock for your local time and do the math to get the difference. Don't worry if the minutes are a little off - just round to the nearest number of hours.

I have always found that using an analog clock, contrary to a digital clock, on my desk works pretty good - it's easier to catch at a glance by looking at the diagonal and moving up or down depending on whose time I was calculating.

See! I told you I was a Super NooB!! I didn't see the clock in the upper right. You folks are great for not raking me over the coals.

Attention, attention, this week's session of raking newbies over the coals has been postponed. Also, please keep this a secret, we don't want the newbs to find out.

Oh! Hey there Spike, welcome to the forums.

FWIW, I just realized that Kirstens Viewer did NOT update to Daylight Saving Time automatically (as of last night anyway.) It's now an hour off from SL Time (as displayed by the LL viewer.)

Great Cthulhu, another Spike! Can the Forums take it?

Welcome, Spike. You have a very auspicious name, sir...just look what happened to your colleague spike Hydraconis. Came here with a dumb newbie question, left with a beautiful woman. Well, not left, exactly...he and LittleMe are still part of the Forum Family.
