Wikipedia:Wikiday
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wikiday is an idea to break up the 24 hour day into three color zones, to make for easier real-time meeting and coordination. The graph is intended to make understanding time zone shifts easier, by using color to represent the local time of day: from light blue morning to orange dusk to dark blue late night. Vertically, the zones are placed in same-time relation to each other. (See main article on meta:Wikiday)
The three main timezones used are CHT (China), GMT (Europe), and PST (America). The color zones are Blue, Green and Orange, representing the synergy times between main local areas; for example the Blue zone is where Asia and Europe share daylight. Where the zones change represents common meeting times for all zones; though one must rise early and another must stay up late to coordinate a meeting. Considering that members of a group may be skewed to one region or another, more convenient meeting times can quickly be calculated.
A day progresses from left to right. If GMT 12:00 is the base, PST local time is early morning, and China time is 8pm evening, etc.
