I have a real treat for you today. After Tuesdays post introduced you to binary numbers I thought it would be fitting to release some of the Binary Clock Screensavers that I have developed over the years.
Binary Clock Screensaver #1

Click here to download (879kb)
The first offering is a screensaver clock I developed many years ago. This has been sitting around since its development and has never been released publicly, until now.
The time is display in binary numbers horizontally across the screen. The top row is the number of hours, the middle row is the number of minutes and the last row is the number of seconds.
Binary Clock Screensaver #2

The second screensaver was developed several years later and is simply an updated version of the first one. Red lights display the time, instead of 1's and 0's we have lights that are either on or off.
In the same fashion as screensaver #1: The time is display in binary numbers horizontally across the screen. The top row is the number of hours, the middle row is the number of minutes and the last row is the number of seconds.
Binary Clock Screensaver #3

Click here to download (856kb)
This has been my all-time favourite. It has been released on other websites (including my personal blog and a screensaver service that was released a few years ago). It is based on the binary clock that you can purchase from ThinkGeek.
It may look a little more complicated at first, but it's actually a little easier. Instead of having to calculate the entire value for hour, minute and seconds you simply work out the number for each digit. Also, instead of being displayed horizontally they are displayed vertically.
Have a look at the photo supplied by ThinkGeek which explains how the clock works:

If you like the look of all the above screensavers then I highly recommend downloading them with a single click by clicking here.
These screensavers are free from viruses, free from spyware, free from adware but best of all free to download. If you have any questions or suggestions about these screensavers please post a comment below.

These are so cool. I have been a big fan of the binary clock screensaver you released ages ago (I think it was the 3rd one). Now I get a few new ones to test my skills!

I love these screensavers! When people walk into my office they get confused. I can't wait for someone to come in asking for the time! Haha!

Hello Adam. I like the color of the first screensaver with the lights on the 2nd and 3rd. You should make a green one with the lights, that would be great. It would be even better if you let us choose which color we like.

I have an xp machine. I tried to put your binary clock 1 in and it came back saying I was missing mci32.ocx. Your 3rd screensaver works fine. I even had a plugin clock that displayed the time the exact same way. Love it.

Hi Adam,
Just one suggestion; because the purpose of a screen saver is to not leave one image in place on the screen for a long time, could you move the clock around the screen every now and again please? Love the idea and execution though.

I love the 3rd Binary clock screensaver!! My friends and co-workers just scratch their heads and ask "what's that"? I think being able to choose from several colors would be great, and how about a horizontal version??

Thanks so much for this update! I really was missing Digg Alerter, and I appreciate the work you've put into the program. As for additional features... Would it be possible to do some sort of sorting or color coding under Dugg By so that I can see which of the people who Dugg the post are my friends and which are new? I always like to check out new people's profiles after they Digg something of mine, so that would be very useful to me.
