h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

this might not be the most welcome entry in this thingie thing –

but as an an innocent new member of the thingites
(i do hope i´am already/still)

known as
alien747 Head gardener and minister for interplanetary exchange of psychoactive matter, thoughts, sounds, vapor, lights, ideas and any form of energy to enhance the ability to build symbolic machines

I have to ask:
Why don´t you install a h2g2 maintime window on frontpage for everybody to be able to see if its thing or poets and any form of clickcountdown or countup to give people the opportunity to make appointments - if they care to - and to make shure that we all forget about realtime pretty soon ?
And go and get on whith your lifes ?

But I have to insist on the click to stop for a couple of hours - the time equal to what used to be saturday after lunch - before others expect you out for drinks - the time for relaxation and infinite possibilities - to be called DOUGLAS

just asking

Guess I should field this one - seeing as I am 'technically' in charge of this rabble.

H2G2 *do* in fact run a feature suggestions (located by clicking on <./>feedback</.>

One industrious Thingite by the name of Knifee did produce a working model for a Thingite clock - details of which you can find here:

F47963?thread=160103 - and this here be the conversation of our asking The Powers That Be if they'd consider adding this to their extremely extensive 'to do' list- and they said yes. But as of yet nothing much else has happened. you could always pop along and reactivate that thread - remind them we are all still here calling out for it!

hi clive most busy ostrich

thanks for answering to my suggestion - i thought that it can´t really be, that i´m the first one to call for h2g2 standard time - but you never know - often the most simple things are not thought of - I still think it would be nice for the clock to stop for a certain amount of time to have time inbetween times - a time where no time will pass - one could do alot of things in literally no time - wouldn´t that be nice?
