Back when I was in high school one of the items I collected was watches. I had several and used to display them hanging from individual straight pins above the desk in my room.  This is ironic now as I do not even wear a watch, nor do I rarely know the current time of day. Despite the irony, I still am intrigued by items that display time. Combine that with a fascination for designs that utilize "found objects", specifically of a related theme and magic ensues! Well, not really but it sounded dramatic at the time (no pun intended). One of the many stops on my journey through favorite book marked sites is BLU DOT which sells well designed furnishings from tables, beds, seats, accessories to storage and shelving. In addition, there is a section titled "Good Design is Good" which offers a few cool extras time consumers. It is was in this section that I found the Blu Dot Desktop Clock. Described as " Taking the form of a one-inch square on your computer desktop, the Blu Dot Desktop Clock displays a different image for every minute of the day - 720 in all." So, times a-wasting - install this fun clock today! BTW, This would make a great sidebar gadget is someone had the time!?!

Also, don't miss the short film "Seven Twenty" that (I am guessing) inspired the creation of this fun time piece.
