Time and Money

Have you ever wanted to know the time in some far away places before you call someone there by phone? Elizabeth and I do, because many times we have called family members and friends living abroad in the middle of their sleep! Here is a Link to a simple service designed to help you call at the right times and avoid disturbing others in their sleep - the World Wide Time. 

Furthermore, do you want a practical calculator for the conversion of foreign currency to your local currency or to any other currency for that matter? Here is a simple and effective Currency Exchange Calculator. There are many currency exchange calculators on the Internet, but this one is unique, accurate and gives you the latest International rates. Above all, it features the conversion to the Nigerian Currency - the Naira!

What's The Time Yonder?

Practical Currency Exchange Calculator

   Elizabeth and I can never remember the time in the different time zones around the world. To avoid waking people up from their sleep, this is the service  we use before ringing any of our friends and family members living abroad.

   To call Nairobi (Kenya) for example, click this URL:  http://www.onyoursite.com/wwc/ , select Kenya and click "Get Time". Kenya will be shown as  precisely two (2) hours ahead of Nigeria; South Africa is one (1) hour ahead, US Eastern is five (5) hours behind us in the summer. For Japan (Tokyo), to call before they go to bed between 10pm and midnight, do so between 2 and 4pm local time in Nigeria. (Tip: The World Wide Clock depends on the accuracy of your PC clock. Keep it accurate).

   To convert your currency to any of the many currencies of different countries, click this URL: http://www.onyoursite.com/cxc/ and follow the directions on the screen. We like this utility for converting foreign currencies into Nigerian Naira (NGN).

   Example: If you enter $8,000 (US dollar) for conversion to Naira you get instantly, NGN1054,480. 6400. (one million, fifty four thousand four hundred and eighty naira and sixty four kobo). With just 8,000 US dollar you can become a Naira millionaire.

 

   For the South African Rand (ZAR), you'll need 48,900 ZAR to get one million Naira!
