Sorted inspired by this thread about SL clocks /108/a2/120021/1.html .... how fesible would it be to have two clocks in the SL window display - one with SL time and one with the local time of the user?

If you play Everquest 2, it has that exact feature...so I'm sure it's a possibility. I believe it just reads the time from the users computer.
I don't really have any issues with time though, I usually run in windowed mode, not that I actually keep track of time anyways.

This is a very logical and sensible idea...unfortunately, I have to come out against it.

If my real time were displayed in my SL screen, I'll be forced to acknowledge how much time I'm spending in SL. That's too frightening to contemplate. And somehow, just looking at SL time, I can convince myself that it's not really 1:00 am, and I should have been in bed 3 hours ago!!
