TachClock
I always wanted a modern interpretation of a pocket watch to match this digital age we live in. Since I had no way to build it in real life, I did the next best thing: I created a Konfabulator Widget instead.
This clock displays time using a 'digital tachometer' style display, where each lit indicator represents an elapsed hour, minute, or second. Simply read the number of indicators lit for the hours, minutes, and seconds to determine the time. Fortunately, this is easier than it might… More

December 14, 2007 · version 1.04My Feedback on the TachClock
breeze_011264The rest may say what they will... This clock is wonderful in more ways than I have time to describe, I can't think of or imagine any other design even remotely similar that could be any easier to read at a glance; once you get used to it, even easier than a digital display. Also, I have never before encountered a clock with this degree of flexibility and options in the custom setup. The best way to put it is: very nice, very well thought and very clever. :)

November 20, 2007 · version 1.04Big problem with this clock
Daichi KuronamaWhatever you have set as the key to raise the clock, that key is no longer available to use for ANY other application. For example, I had the raise key set to Alt + C. Suddenly, I could no longer type a capital C, anywhere in Windows. If you change it to "none," it still locks out your last choice. I tried making it Alt + the asterisk on the number pad, but it just changed it to alt + 8, so I couldn't type a *. Looks good, but this bug is too big to overlook.

I downloaded Widgets just for this clock, and if you ever sell this design to a watch maker please let me know. Outstanding piece of artistry, ingenuity, and imagination. Well done, Mr. Govaars.
