[MCN-L] Web count-down clock examples?

2008-02-21 Thread Christina DePaolo
Hi,
Do any of you use count-down clocks on your websites or know of websites that 
do? We are thinking about adding a count down feature to the homepage to 
promote the opening and closing of special exhibitions. We are looking for 
examples, so if you can pass any on, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks.

[MCN-L] Web count-down clock examples?

2008-02-21 Thread Tracie Varnell
Hi!

I've put one on the front page of our fund raiser. I just used the
Google widget. If you want to see how it looks you can see it at
http://www.amuse-um.org. I put it at the top on the front page and at
the bottom on the others. I've not had any problems with it, other then
a general feeling of anxiety when we see how close the event is and how
much we still have to do :P.

I use a countdown timeclock called Timeleft from
Nestersofthttp://www.nestersoft.com/timeleft/ on
my computer screen when i do classes, lectures, etc...and I know that it
includes a variety of formats and features exportable to a websitefree
trial for local use is available.  There is also a website called
timeleft.com which is just a pretty proforma sales referral portal but has
some good links to clock software...that's where i found what i am using,
