on computer time
Computers work in binary. So why not have clock which does the same thing?
I found this great script swimming around JavaScriptSource.com with will
insert, in plain text, a binary clock into your page. The script converts
the current time into binary format and then displays it using the <span>
tag with the correct ID in it.
