Time is relative (to GMT?)

Since YouTube channels garner viewers from the literally the "World Wide" Web, time zones come into play. Stuart's place is a good example. After seeing yet another global Netizen show up there today, I figured I'd showcase a fun tool for general use.

In 2014, Randall Munro (engineer, cartoonist, author) created a time zone map for his web-comic XKCD. If you click the image above it will open a graphic generated in real time (+/- 15 minutes) for your time zone.

You can copy this link for use in a portal or as a bookmark.

Yes, it's cool with him (as long as you don't charge for its use).

If you are a hard core geek or code monkey, here is an explanation.

Enjoy!
