こんにちは東京から / Hello from Tokyo!

This is my first time visiting Japan, and it's already been an incredible experience. Dinner tonight was an interesting blend of Japanese fare, most of which tasted completely unfamiliar. And the long ride from Narita to the Westin Tokyo allowed me to view some of the city's multifaceted beauty.

Tokyo is the start of my mini World Tour of client meetings; I'm off to Hong Kong in a couple days, then to Mumbai only a day later. Stay tuned for more interesting musings.

Excellent Vista Feature – Additional Clocks

One of these excellent features is Additional Clocks in the Date and Time Settings. This feature allows you to add two additional clocks to the task bar, providing a view of alternate time zones in two of the following ways:

Mouse hover:

Hover

Single-click:

With team members and clients spread across the globe, this feature is greatly appreciated! Now I don't have to keep Yahoo! Widgets or Google Gadgets around for this sort of thing.
