This isn't exactly the same, but I think the Sony VAIO comes with a desktop background that automatically changes through morning/day/evening/night scenes as the day goes on. (It's a little bit of Active Desktop trickery; the background is really HTML with a mite of embedded JScript to change the image.) |

xearth for Unix-style machines is a program that replaces the xwindows background with a lit 3-d globe style view of the Earth's day side for whatever time and date the PC's clock says it is. The globe is marked with major cities. xearth is included with many Linux distributions. |

Mac and Windows versions of xearth are available. |

Xearth displays current Earthquake info.
Someone should combine this with global Hurricane/Storm warnings (like the Eye of the Storm prog) and a weathermap (as in J-Track). |

Screensaver where the image is the desktop as I left it, but the way it might appear if I were actually doing some work. |

Turn off your computer, and let the (real) sun perform the effects. In the day it looks like day. At night it looks like night. At dawn it looks like dawn. At dusk it looks like dusk. That's so deep I think I'll head off to the nearest bamboo grove and meditate. . . . |
