Take a look at the '''xearth''' program. It can be set to show an image of the world, with the day portion lit up and the night portion dark. This also helps to explain how seasons work. [[User:AlbertCahalan|AlbertCahalan]] 02:34, 25 January 2008 (EST) |

Hey guys - saw you speak at yesterday's Chicago OLPC meetup. I didn't meet you two in person but did talk to many of your IMSA classmates and teachers/administrators. I wanted to point you to an interesting post about XO Planetarium, an activity for the XO. It's an older post, but there are some interesting comments that might be useful. Planetarium OLPC News Post This is probably just the beginning of my unsolicited input for you - your clock app is a really awesome idea, great project, and perfect for the young end of the 6-12 age range targeted with the XO. As far as I can tell, there are fewer activities designed for the younger set, something I hope to change. User:KayTi KayTi
