This is one of the more unique Flickr websites that I have found. Flickr Time lets you enter in a few tags and it will retrieve images from Flickr. Nothing special, right? It will actually take those images and assemble the current time with thumbnails. I know, it still doesn’t sound cool…but you haven’t tried it.
What really makes this impressive are all of the animations that are going on. There is a large analog background clock that shows you the current time and the seconds hand is always moving around. The digital clock will start to change about 5-seconds before the next minute and it will finish about 5-seconds after it.
The first thing that popped into my head was “where’s the screensaver” because this would be an awesome screensaver! Unfortunately it would eat up quite a bit of bandwidth since it retrieves around 80 photos every minute but I’m sure you’re friends at work would think it is awesome.

You’re right. It is way cooler when you see it yourself. I especially like “the moment’s picture”. It adds more variety to the mix.
