There are plenty of freeware desktop clocks and this one has no serious problems. It could benefit from a wider range of features and interchangeable faces, but is useful as a clock. Incidentally, the controls are accessed by hovering around the edge of the clock. No installation required, so can run from a USB memory stick.

More features to come. We are going to add personalization (custom image/photo on back, color settings and Alarm functionality).

Not bad at all. Has ability for animated background, worked great. It's beta so don't expect the world but it is very easy to use, doesn't slow my pc down a bit with smooth hands. I know it's beta so would suggest color changing background and eventually clock skins. Although, may already be some, haven't checked the site yet. Excellent little software.

Nice display, but there is no option to change the bland white. Also, it is on top of everything on the desktop. This means rearranging gadgets and icons (using on Vista and Win7). Definitely has a little work left to do, but it is a nice start. [Editor: The `on top` behavior can be changed from the settings dialog]
