This is the Emergency Blogging System. This is not a test; a test has questions.
For those of you in the US (and not in those parts that don’t observe Daylight Savings), Daylight Savings Time ended at 2 am local time today. If you have a WordPress blog (whether it is on WordPress.com, a WordPress stand-alone, or WordPress MU – this includes Blogivists and Conservablogs), and you had the time changed for Daylight Savings, you need to change it back to Standard Time (Central UTC -6, Mountain UTC -7, Eastern UTC -5, Pacific UTC -8, and check your clock for other locales). To do so, go into your wp-admin panel, select “Settings”, and under the “General Settings” page that pops up, select the right time zone. Don’t forget to hit “save” when you’re done.
Again, this is not a test. Had this been a test, you wouldn’t have been given official news, instructions or information. This concludes this broadcast of the Emergency Blogging System.
Is the change later this year than normal? The clock in the cd player in my car changed itself a couple weeks ago.
It’s not that deluxe, it barely plays music much less tell you the date.
At first I figured power had been cut off and it reset, but the presets on the radio didn’t reset too.
Weird.
A couple years back, they moved the end of Daylight Savings from the last Sunday in October to the first Sunday in November (and also moved the start from the first Sunday in April to the second Sunday in March).
I’m in favor of dumping it entirely.
“I’m in favor of dumping it entirely.”
So am I. Something about it just annoys the heck out of me.
I agree with you. It serves no purpose whatsoever.
