Claim 22:
23. Apparatus comprising:
a clock enabling time coordination by persons in different time zones, including:
a 24-hour clock face,
wherein the clock face includes a plurality of hour marks,
wherein each respective hour mark corresponds to a respective hour among the 24 hours represented by the clock face,

at least one indicator,
wherein the at least one indicator is movable relative to the clock face to indicate a current time in a local time zone where the clock is currently located,

a dial,
wherein the dial is movable relative to the clock face,
wherein the dial includes
24 icons, wherein each icon visibly differs from each of the other icons,
wherein each icon corresponds to a one hour time period,
wherein each icon is selectively positionable through dial movement relative to the clock face, to be in visually associated relation with each one of the hour markings on the clock face,

a computer,
wherein the computer is in operative connection with the dial,
wherein the computer is operative to cause
responsive at least in part to at least one received network communication signal, a determination of the current time in the local time zone where the clock is currently located,
responsive at least in part to the current time determination,
the at least one indicator to move to indicate the determined current time, and
the dial to be positioned with each particular icon visually associated with one respective particular hour mark,
 wherein the visual association of each particular icon with the one respective particular hour mark is indicative that each particular hour mark in the local time zone corresponds to a respective hour of a world wide standard time that is designated by the one particular icon,
 whereby the at least one indicator which indicates the determined current time in the local time zone also simultaneously indicates a corresponding current world wide standard time.
