That system of pm and am is always confuses me , can’t you do it in 24 hour format , there are lots of people from Europe using 24 hour format , i think that it will be great

Hi Mirac! You could always put this on the idea board to see how popular your idea would be.

Well, I’ve already put this on the Idea Board some time ago….. It’s here – vote vote vote! :D

So you did!! :)

Would be a neat idea, because in Canada we also use the 24 hour system (especially on the French side)…. I’m always confused between 12:00am and 12:00pm (which one refers to midnight and which one refers to noon?)…. I have to think hard…. when I see/hear 8:00pm, I automatically add 12 hours in my head!

And I think Americans would understand this system easily (they know about it, airline companies, army and many others use that 24 hour system)

12am is midnight. :)

Thanks for the ideas! Keep ’em coming.

Ermm……Mandarin tutors will be more familiar with am and pm as we don’t tell time using the 24 hour system.:D But anything will be fine, its just a matter of getting used to it. Cheers!

Well, I think making the 24 hour versus am/pm thing should be based on the preferences of the person. For me personally, I would hate it if we did the 24 hour thing.

I’m a firm believer in the advantages of using the 24 hour clock, and I have used it most of my working life. You certainly have my vote.

I am definitely open to having a choice.
Like Ginny and Claire, I would not like just having the 24 hour clock.

But it will be great if we can choose it in our preferences.Please do it :)
