If you are you must know how important a powerful and handy world clock display utility to you! In fact, a world clock was widely used in a lot of fields, such as aviation, hostel, education etc. Even some games we have played can use it accidentally. Here I commend you a handy and easy to use world clock tool I am using. That is Qlock which was published by Vitei Inc. With Qlock you can in control of the time and zone all over the world momentarily. Now let us go and see how powerful and handy of this tool.
Qlock is a world clock display for our desktop, that enables us to display the current time for any major city in the world. The clock displays can be placed anywhere on our desktop, and also customized in size and color. We can also add a recurring alarm to each clock, synchronize the time with Internet time servers, choose between 12 and 24 hour formats, and attach a note to each clock. Designed for both business or home use, Qlock takes the world clock to a new level with more features, more settings and more control. Following are the key features and functions of this innovative world clock utility, including:
1. Integrated RSS/Atom feed reader - Stay up to date with the latest times and news from around the world while we carry on working. Qlock fetches our most important news/stock/blog feeds and displays them in easy to read windows.
2. Daily foreign exchange rates - Get daily FX rates for all major currency pairs straight to our desktop. Set Strike prices for each pair to help us keep on top of the market.
3. Sticky notes - These are a useful way of keeping track of to-do items, meetings, phone numbers or in fact anything that we would normally use a small sticky note for. If our monitor/desk is covered in those little things, then this feature is for us!
4. When the time is - This feature is useful when we want to see other local times for any given time. For instance, if we have a meeting in Los Angeles at 4 pm and want to see what time it will be across the globe, just right click on Los Angeles, select "When the time is.." and set it to 16:00.
5. Multiple Profiles - Create different Qlock layouts in each profile, switching instantly between profiles depending on what we are working on. This is great if we are a FOREX trader and need to see multiple times and feeds but also occasionally more detailed information.
6. Qlock Sync - Qlock Sync allows us to synchronize our desktop settings across multiple PCs. For example if we have Qlock set up on our desktop at work and on a laptop, use Qlock Sync to keep both machine settings up to date with each other. Our entire layout, feeds, windows, settings, notes, user cities etc. will automatically transfer to the server so that we can keep our desktop up to date on the road, or where ever we are.
7. Automatic program updates - Qlock automatically downloads time zone and Daylight Saving Time changes, new features and bug fixes straight to our PC and updates itself automatically in the background, while we are doing other things.
8. Multiple alarms per city - Qlock allows us to set up to 5 separate independent alarms per city window. For instance, we can have 3 alarms for New York, 2 for London and 1 for Tokyo.
9. Countdown timers - As well as setting an absolute alarm time, we can also set a Countdown time. This will trigger the alarm after a certain period of time has passed and is useful for keeping track of events like meetings, lessons, telephone calls etc.
10. Transparency - Qlock allows us change the transparency for each clock window. There are 3 transparency settings, Low, Medium and High that give us full control on how opaque the clock windows appear on our desktop.
11. Finer control - Screen real estate is valuable, it should not be wasted. With Qlock we can customize each and every clock window to suit our needs and tastes. From a single line for each time right up to the XXLarge quarter screen size.
12. Integrated World Map - Qlock Gold built-in world map allows us to see the time anywhere in the world simply by moving our mouse over a real-time night and day world map. Type in the name of a city and the map automatically searches and displays the time at that location, even before we have finished typing!
