World Clock On Ubuntu |
Ubuntu Hardy Heron offers Gnome which includes a unique clock that really adds to the desktop. Traditionally the clock usually appears in the corner of the screen and by clicking on it you may change the time or timezone.

After clicking the edit button you will see the Clock Preferences window which contains three tabs. the first tab, general, allows for selection of 12 hour format or 24 hour format and also allows us to show additional items on the panel including date, seconds, weather, and temperature.
The Locations tab allows the user to add multiple location profiles by selecting the add button. You can also edit or remove locations.
The weather tab allows you to set temperature and wind speed units displayed. At the bottom you can also select time settings to change the time.
