Timezone conversion

We've all been at that point of frustration because we just cannot find out the timing of that football match in our own timezone. Sure, the official site says CET 7pm, but that means nothing to me. In the end we've always had to hunt down timezone conversion sites to do the work for us.

Thankfully, there are quite a few, like:

5) EveryTimeZone
www.everytimezone.com
What I love about this site is it's simple description: "Never warp your brain with timezone math again"

Unfortunately, it just allows you to see your local time and the equivalent times in 14 evenly spread timezones across 3 days. Still, pretty handy, and dead easy to understand.

4) WorldTimeBuddy

http://www.worldtimebuddy.com/
World Time Buddy is a tool that allows you to calculate the time on any day, across any amount of time zones of your choice from all the timezones in the world.

Really useful, but reading time zones will take more than just a glance, as the interface is not exactly simplified.

3) TimeZoneConverter

http://www.timezoneconverter.com/
Time Zone Converter is much tidier and simple to use: You set the date, key in the time, and choose the from and to conversion options for timezones.

Quite a step forward from the previous two, and really nice to use.

2) TheTimeZoneConverter
http://www.thetimezoneconverter.com/

This website's URL may have only a 'The' extra, but it is massively different from all usual timezone converters. This one follows a simple and stripped-down design. Like, really, really, stripped-down design.

That's pretty much all it has.

The flip side to this simplicity is, you can't convert timezones for days other than the current one. But really, it's all you need.

1) TimeAndDate

http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html

Time and Date is perhaps the best of the bunch. An elegant user interface easily allows you to convert between every relevant timezone including compensation for things like daylight saving, and also has a catalog of national time zones and other extras.

So next time you decide to find out whether you would have to stay up all night to watch your fav band's live show on TV, you know which site to hop on!
