Peer and I have spent today building HTML / JavaScript clocks.
I thought I would create an analogue clock, but with a few alterations to make it an interesting project; I was also keen to avoid using any image files, so radial gradients seemed like a good option. Because we’re using the client-side time, this experiment does use JavaScript; also, as I’ve used gradient backgrounds, this will only work in Mozilla and Webkit browsers.
Here’s the result:

Addendum: you can see Peer’s clock at http://www.curiouspixels.co.uk/peersclock/
