The opponent of course uses the same mechanics to counter your streams. It´s a freeware game with nice graphics, features an multiplayer mode as well.</p><p><img

The left site counts the hours while the right site counts the minutes. This means every minute the right site wins a point and every hours the left one does. Strange concept but great looking unique clock.</p><p>Here is the movie that shows the clock.</p><p>Update: the original movie is no longer available, and we had to search for a copy of it on the Internet. After some searching we found the clock on YouTube, and you find the video link embedded below. You may want to turn down the music as it may not be your taste at all.</p><p><iframe

The concept of the clock on the other hand is interesting, and die hard Pong fans looking for a new clock may like the idea of hanging it up in their homes.</p><table><tr><td><img

href="http://www.sandermulder.com/pong_clock.html">Sander Mulder</a>, released a limited edition of the clock which sold out in one day. You may sometimes see one of those rare clocks for auction on eBay.</p><p>You can also <a
href="http://123led.wordpress.com/about/">check out this</a> WordPress site which details how you can build your own Pong clock. The description includes the parts list needed, and explains every step of the process with pictures and text. It is still fairly technical, and users who never build an electronic device before may run into a world of troubles trying to build the pong clock.</p><p>One suggestion would be to ask a friend, or to hire someone to build the clock for you. While this surely drives the price up, you can be sure that you do not get shocked to death plugging it in for the first time.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.ghacks.net/2005/11/25/the-pong-clock/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
