http://jacopocolo.com/hexclock
Created by Jacopo Colò, this minimalist tool displays the current time as a hexadecimal color code, cycling through the full 24-hour range from #000000 to #235959. It's a clever and nerdy intersection of color theory and timekeeping, offering a novel way to visualize hours, minutes, and seconds as a continuously shifting dark palette.
