Blogit is out of California and it is recorded according to PST! I am forever posting an hour behind, too! sam

Re: The Blogit time stamp is set to the same time zone as California is it not?
I think you are right, Azur, as my post last night said I had posted it three hours ahead of my current time of posting...which would be the West Coast of the US.

(That sentence made no sense.)

Re: I sympathize with your problem with time zones, but it can't be helped.
Northsage: I was just curious because on other blogging sites I've used, there is a drop-down menu allowing me to change the time stamp of my posts....so I know it can be done.

Azur,
      You might be correct, upon reflection. I might be wrong about Blogit being on GMT, but I thought I read that, in something they put in their literature. Being wrong, happened to me one other time, when I thought that I had made a mistake, but hadn't. California is three hours different, than our Eastern Time Zone, too. Now I'm really confused, an unfamiliar situation, for me! (Yeah, SURE!)

It's currently 12.26 pm Monday in Greenwich in England.

    Being a world-wide entity, Blogit operates on Greenwich mean time. This is an arbitrary line running north-to-south, through Greenwich England, dividing the planet into 24 time zones. It drives me crazy to have to add or subtract hours to figure out when something was posted, but it cannot be helped.
     We here in the states, have come to believe that the Sun rises and sets on us, but not everything and everyone begins and ends, when we say it should. This is just our juvenile, self-centered, arrogant streak, showing to the rest of the world. Civilization developed on the other side of vast oceans, and truth be told, we are really only the new kids on the block. I have to add three hours to posted times, to figure out when a posting or comment was added, according to Greenwich England time. You will have to do some math, according to where you live, just like everyone else, not living in Greenwich..
