ZoneTick World Time Zone Clock v2.5 for Windows is Released

(PRWEB) January 26, 2005

What do international business travelers, ham radio users, travel agents, and eBay snipers have in common? They often need to monitor the time in multiple time zones simultaneously.

A business traveler far away from home needs to know if his or her colleagues might still be in the office. Ham radio users need to know GMT time when communicating with other ham radio enthusiasts. Travel agents want to know local times elsewhere. And an eBay sniper would like to know when biddings for items end in eBay time.

WR Consulting has just released a productivity tool that could help – ZoneTick World Time Zone Clock v2.5. Knowing the time around the world is so much simpler now.

This little world clock runs in your Windows system tray, replacing the native clock. It can show many time zones simultaneously. Running in taskbar, it does not clutter your desktop. It conveniently displays the times in places you have chosen to monitor.

An advanced alarm system comes with it allowing you to set alarms for remote clocks in other time zones. For example, a recurring yearly alarm can remind you about an important event such as birthday. Cron-like format can also be used to execute something every few minutes or hours on certain days of week.

Clocks can also be highlighted with color, dynamically, depending on local clock times. Just glance at that clock in the usual corner of your screen and instantly know whether a remote location is open or closed for business.

The program is very handy when communicating with people in other parts of the globe: such as your friends in other countries, your colleagues in remote offices or in the field, or the home-crowd while you are traveling. ZoneTick will also synchronize your computer clock with accurate Internet atomic time-servers.

Dennis James, Director of Corporate Marketing at Talisma Corporation, said: “If you need to know what is happening around the world, look no further. ZoneTick is a great product. All of us in marketing have purchased one because we do business in Europe, North America, and Asia-Pacific. It saves a lot of calculation when we are planning and setting up meetings.”

Whether you travel from time zone to time zone, have international friends, or are simply on the lookout for high-quality shareware, ZoneTick is the world clock for you!

Fourth Wall Studios Releases “The Hunt,” the First Story Set in the World of “FLARE”

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) October 09, 2012

Emmy Award-winning Fourth Wall Studios has released “The Hunt” as the first installment of “FLARE”. Set in a post-apocalyptic world, “FLARE” is a world of darkness and fear, but also of humanity and hope. Each day, a mysterious light briefly illuminates the transformed world. But is the light another threat or is it salvation? Does it mean hope or death for earth’s last few inhabitants?

Within this world, there are many stories, some of which will explore the answers to questions about the world, but all of which will explore the lives of the people in it. In “The Hunt”, two families become deeply connected by a single thoughtless act. Burke (Jamie McShane, Sons of Anarchy) is on the hunt for the people who took everything from him, while Dale (Mark Moses, Mad Men) and his son Sid will use the dark in any way they can. It is a tense game of cat and mouse in a post-apocalyptic landscape.

“FLARE” was created by Jim Stewartson, CEO of Fourth Wall Studios. “Having developed this world for nearly three years, it’s so exciting to finally be able to share a part of it with our audience.” said Stewartson. “It was such a privilege to be able to work with our director Dan Brown and this incredible cast. And as we release more content, we will have created something like an open-sourced story world. I hope that audiences everywhere find this glimpse of the world of “FLARE” intriguing enough to want to create their own stories set in this universe.”

FLARE: The Hunt is available for free now on Fourth Wall Studios’ platform, http://www.RIDES.tv

As part of the cutting-edge technology of the RIDES.tv multi-screen platform, “FLARE” uniquely offers:


    A global view of the world through the amateur radio conversations of secondary characters.
    Deeper insight into each character by experiencing their inner thoughts.
    An open-source philosophy of storytelling, where the audience has the opportunity to contribute to the world of “FLARE”. Where will we go from here?

FLARE: The Hunt is directed by filmmaker Dan Brown. Written by Olumide Odebunmi & Tolu Awosika. Produced by Jackie Turnure. Jim Stewartson, Zach Schiff-Abrams, Sean Stewart and Elan Lee serve as Executive Producers.

Viewers can access all of Fourth Wall Studios’ content including “FLARE” for free at RIDES.tv. Like RIDES.tv on Facebook, follow RIDES.tv on Twitter, or add to your circles on Google+.
