Swatch Internet Time

Swatch Internet Time is a lightweight Yahoo! widget developed specifically for helping you place a clock on your desktop that shows the Swatch Internet Time (or beat time) using the decimal concept developed by the Swatch corporation. The gadget shows the time in ‘beats’ instead of hours and minutes.
You can install the widget on all Windows versions out there, provided that you have Yahoo! Widget Engine platform deployed on the target computer.

Simplistic looks and a few notable options

Swatch Internet Time sports a minimalist design that reveals the number of beats directly in the main window. What’s more, you are allowed to move the gadget to a preferred location on the desktop using drag-and-drop actions.
The widget does not come packed with any configuration settings of its own. No options are hidden under the hood. You can right-click on the main window in order to check out the available tweaking parameters offered by the Yahoo! platform.
What’s more, you are allowed to hide or close the widget, set the window level by making the widget remain on top of other Windows or keep it below all other panels, ignore all mouse events, turn off the ability to drag the widget with the mouse, as well as set the opacity of the main window by moving the integrated slider.
Tests have pointed out that Swatch Internet Time carries out tasks quickly and without errors. It remains light on system resources so the overall performance of the computer is not hampered. You may keep it running in the background.

Final ideas

To sum things up, Swatch Internet Time provides nothing more than a simple software solution for helping you read the Swatch Internet Time directly from the comfort of your desktop. It can be tweaked by less experienced users and professionals alike.
