www.timeanddate.com is a great resource for finding out time and date related information for any major city or country around the world:
- Whether you’re Checking the date and time for international business conference calls. For example it allows you to pick up to 4 cities on the planet and compare times for a web meeting or conference call. If it is at 4 pm in New York what time will the meeting be in China, Saudi Arabia and France?
- So you don’t wake up your international friends who live overseas like me in Sydney, Australia by calling them at dinner time from Europe.
- If you need to make a phone call to someone in another country and you are not quite sure how to dial the number, then their International Dialing Codes listing should be useful
- View the current position of sunlight on Earth and which parts of the Earth are in day and which are in night.
- Checking the calendar to see what days public holidays will be on in the next 2 years or past few years
- Much more including : countdown timers, moon and sun rise/set times, daylight savings start and end times etc

I’ll have to check this site out and bookmark it. I’m always wondering what time it is overseas since I deal with customers in many country’s. Thanks!
Now this is just the software developer in me … but I wonder if this could be used to adjust the time a comment shows as being left to the viewer’s local time somehow?
EDITOR: That would be tricky to say the least, requiring accurate geoip details to find out where you were, finding out the difference between the web servers time and your local time etc and then displaying it
Thanks for the site.I have bookmarked it I am a traveler and its of great use to me
that s really handy
thanks , stumbled nd mailed to friends 🙂
Thats a great site! It makes it much easier trying to find out the time around the world!!! especially if you wrk with people from all aroudn the world!! 🙂
Very useful URL, with so many things going on in daily life, I have a really hard time remembering the difference in time zones. Especially with business, you wouldn’t want to bother a client in the wrong time of day. 🙂 Thanks for sharing.
I happened along your blog when searching for the time and date for china. I have had several inquiries lately from other countries and certainly don’t want to call back and wake people at 3 am ! Thanks for the great resource !
Thanks for sharing this tool, added your post to my delicious. With this it’s easy to see what hour is when you talk with friends from other countries.
Just following up as I didn’t hear back from you, sorry to email you again. I noticed your page http://www.roadlesstravelled.com.au/find-out-time-and-date-in-another-city-or-country/ links to timeanddate.com. Unfortunately, that site isn’t very accessible for the sight impaired. Would you consider adding a link to a more accessible version likewww.thetimenow.com which is WCAG 2.0 compatible?
Also, if you ever want to see how accessible a page is, I recommend http://wave.webaim.org. It is really helpful.
Thanks,
