I think you are a day early. If not, I'm setting up to be a day late. (and

I think 23:59:59 UTC is 16:59:59 PST. UTC is 7 hours earlier than PST.
For a time-nuts list, there sure seems to be a lot of confusion. He was
off a day, you're off an hour.
Besides leapsecond.com, online there is also of course NIST/USNO's site
http://time.gov and you can listen to WWV at 303-499-7111. If you want

There's an old list of how to (and how not to) watch a leap second:
http://leapsecond.com/notes/leap-watch.htm
The NMEA output of some GPS receivers is fun to watch. Some use a double :59:59
or double :00:00 instead of :59:60 for a positive leap second.

Does the leapsecond get added just once (GMT time zone) or does it happen in a
staggered fashion at the same hh:mm:ss within each timezone?

Well, it would be funny to add 1/24th of a second at 00:00 TL in each of
the timezones, but I'm afraid that would tear apart the Earth rotation ?

Google has hacked their internal NTP servers to spread the extra second over
several hours. That's slow enough so

See http://leapsecond.com/java/gpsclock.htm
But that's planes, etc. The ground-control radar folks use UTC as I
recall, and they have dealt with leap seconds enough to know what to
expect.
