This time something new, not really. It was GiveAway in 2010, 2011 and now.

Here are the old reviews:

Again a "Pro" version and not these lousy "Amateur" versions.

After start a resizable world map opens with night&day zone and a a "twilight" zone, which is simply plain wrong. Dear programmer, the twilight zone differs from equator region to the pole regions.

And a second remark to the day&night world. There are better images with a higher resolution in the WEB, take different maps for different resolutions. Take a winter/spring/summer/autumn map. There is a lot to improve. And give the user the chance to hide the the menu bar and the title bar...

This program uses the system time, you cannot define another time server.

To this map you can add analog or digital clocks (in my eyes a bad layout of the clocks, which are not resizable), you can see a calender, but not choose the the begin of the week Sunday/Monday.

A simple world map, with a lot of possible improvements, graphically not the best. In my case the system freezes, when I want to install this worldmap as wallpaper.

(*)mission not accomplished, this is no "high quality".

Uninstalled via reboot.

I downloaded an earlier giveaway of this in September 2011 because I have friends and relatives all over the planet and working out when someone would be free to Skype (actually, it was MSN at the time) can be quite a nightmare...

The neatest feature of this software was allowing me to have a small, semi-transparent, customizable line of digital clocks with their time zones on my desktop allowing me to see the time in as many cities/zones as I needed.

I'd tried a few free alternatives and frankly none were as good as this so if you need a world time clock I would recommend this without hesitation: it does exactly what it says on the tin.

Also, as I think I mentioned in my comment at the time, any piece of software called "Crave clock" should be downloaded just for the unintentional comedy value...

I had version 1.6 from an earlier giveaway. I choose to install this into the same folder. It installed with no problems. The program is a world clock. It's not something I use everyday but it's nice. It's set up to start with your computer when you turn it on so you will want to turn that off if you don't want it to run all the time.

You can read a review from Ashraf on an earlier version here..

Long-established proven software that works exactly as intended; I have no idea why Karl at post #2 had a problem with it.

I've been using an earlier version of Crave World Clock for many a year and no, it isn't meant to be Google Earth and no, it isn't meant to be a work of graphic art. Just a clock. A global clock -- and an excellent one, too.

It can be used as a screensaver and, where this latest version is concerned, in tandem with various gizmos and widgets kindly added in by the developer, though in my case they're not necessary. I have a shortcut to the app in my Windows 7 Quick Launch (the lovely old Vista-style QL that I brought back to replace the pin-to-taskbar nonsense from Microsoft-Knows-Better) and I hit that shortcut whenever I need a visual time-check on whichever cities I've added to the map -- and it's surprising, how frequently that is.

Verdict: Great software, well-known developer and, today, an outstanding bargain for any and every computer user. Just be careful if you email anyone a recommendation: I did so to a female friend a few years back and a typo meant the second letter of the word 'clock' went missing. She emailed back with a quizzical: 'So that's what you think I'm craving. . ?'
