# The Web has several other sources for time zone and daylight savings data.
|
||
|
|
# Here are some recent links that may be of interest.

|
|
# Date and Time Gateway
|
||
|
|
# http://www.bsdi.com/date
|
||
|
|
# A text-based source for tables of current time throughout the world.
|
||
|
|
# Its point-and-click interface accesses a recent version of the tz data.

# Local Times Around the World

|

|
|
# This text-based system contains links to local time servers
|
||
|
|
# throughout the world, and though the coverage is limited,
|
||
|
|
# the live data provide a nice way to check one's tables.

# A static time zone map, available in both low-resolution and
|
||
|
|
# high-resolution versions. The quality is good, but the map does not
|
||
|
|
# indicate summer time, and parts of the data are a few years out of date.

# VIBE's World Map

|
||
|
|
# An active time zone map. You can point to the map and find out what
|
||
|
|
# time it is at that location. The map and data are not as good as
|
||
|
|
# other sources.

# To Paul's list of time zone information on the web, I would add the
|
||
|
|
# following URL:
|
||
|
|
# http://www.dhl.com/dhl/dhlinfo/1bb.html
|
||
|

# or more simply:

|
||
|
|
#
|
||
|
|
# This is run by DHL (the courier company), and it presents a list of the
|
||
|
|
# countries served by that company. If you then click on a particular
|
||
|
|
# country, here's an example of what you'll see (graphics stripped out):

# INTERNATIONAL DIALING CODE: +44
|

#
|
||
|
|
# CURRENT LOCAL TIME: 09:41 Monday 6 November 1995
|
||
|
|
#
|
||
|
|
# I find this rather handy, and given that DHL covers 217 countries and
|
||
|
|
# territories, it's pretty comprehensive coverage.
|
||
|
|
#
|
||
|
|
# (I have no idea what system DHL is using to calculate the local time, but
|
||
|
|
# it's been accurate so far.)
