The Meeting Clock Page

They say time is money. Did you ever sit in a meeting or class and wonder how much money was represented by the time of all the people sitting there? The Meeting Clock will keep track for you! The Meeting Clock is something I created for fun. It's a web page that you can download and run on any PC, laptop PC, Mac, Handheld PC, or anything else that has a JavaScript capable web browser. I wrote it in JavaScript so I could have it handy on my Handheld PC running Pocket Explorer. It's been tested with Explorer 4.0, Pocket Explorer 3.0, and Netscape 4.5 and 4.7. You can also just access it here on the web and run it.

To use it, just enter the number of attendees at the event, and an approximate average hourly cost per attendee. This can be salary, loaded costs, or whatever you think is appropriate. Click "Start" when the meeting starts. A running clock on the meeting time will then start, along with a running clock of the cost! "Pause" will stop the timer. When you hit "Start" again, it will pick up where it left off (like stopping and restarting a stopwatch). "Reset" resets the time and cost to zero.

Who knows, bring it to your next long, boring meeting, and maybe it will be shorter! Or maybe you'll be thrown out!

The section below includes the clock. To just get the clock itself, click here. You can then save the file and run it anywhere. It can be freely redistributed as long as there is no charge.
