I wrote a little while ago about nine nicer ways to tell the time as I had noticed a few clever ways of your screensaver being used to display the time. Well I wish I had known then about Simon Heys’s Word Clock, which shows the time typographically and gives quite a bit of control over the display of the typography.

There’s also a Rotary Word Clock which is just as lovely, if not more so. Have a closer look by clicking the images above, then get over to the site and download the screensavers for PC and Mac. You can even get an iPhone version if you’ve been brave enough to jailbreak your device.

His portfolio is rather nice too…
