Happy Birthday, Urlesque!

According to Internet Time, we're approximately 1000 beats old. Sure sounds impressive, doesn't it? Well, it's not. A beat of Internet Time is about 1 minute and 26 seconds in everything else time. "Everything else time," meaning, nobody outside of Swatch actually uses Internet Time. Swatch is the Swiss watch company/ think tank you can thank for inventing time--for the Internet! Internet Time is time made easy:

@345 + 456 .beats = @801


See. Going off the conversion equation provided by the helpful folks at Swatch, telling Internet Time is kind of like telling regular time, but with a guaranteed headache. The @ symbol in fact stands for headache. But before you reach for the Kids Tylenol, go on and join the Swiss in wishing us a Happy 1000. Go on!
