I thought about this a bit more, and think that there may be a valid
split between what might be called Clock and Time (currently
StopWatch) activities.
Clock's primary purpose would be to display a large clock. It would
likely have digital and analog modes, but could probably choose one or

Benjamin,
1. Clock is non-interactive. It doesn't make sense to share it, or
save it to the journal, so I've disabled those features.
Human being is good at finding differences, but drawing similarity
out of seemingly different things is more fun if you know it.
2. I like small programs
What do people think of this distinction?

If you have to do some operations on the laptop and wait many

After brainstorming with some other folks at Hacker's, our feeling is the

but multiple MACs. This should be easy to reproduce if you can
reconfigure several APs without causing other problems. :-)

We need more testing on activities. We also need more volunteers. I'm

every file is
