Binary Clock

This clock screensaver displays the current time in binary form in the middle of your screen, as red dots against a black background. The time in digital format is shown directly below it. Via the screensaver's settings menu, you can optionally hide the developer's logo, as well as the digital clock and the sound that is played every new hour.

I can solve binaries to decimal but how do you read a dotted one?

Does this clock make a sound effect on the hour such as Westminster Chime or Whittington Chime? I did not believe it plays every hour.

It's good to have the option to disable the logo and actual time in settings. My only grind is that it doesn't support multi-monitor setups, only shows up on the main display.

by HeresJohnathan on June 14, 2020

Works nice, Good idea. You may hide logo with config interface.

I give 4 (but put 5) because it doesnt get larger and doesnt change default color (red).
Probably will integrate it into Windows 7 ISO.

Thanks for your work.

Really Good and you CAN turn off the logo! Go to the settings to do so.

TIX Clock? Did I get that screen saver? Doing so may rate at least three stars...!

by Benjamin Wenzell on July 6, 2016

Is there a version without a big white logo on it?
Otherwise a 5-star.

by Devin on October 27, 2015

Like the concept, and nice execution! Just the logo could be a little dimmer.
