Well, that&#8217;s when we go over a list of applications we&#8217;ve developed for a different platform and see if we can port one to the current development platform.  And that&#8217;s how we&#8217;ve ended up with a new software release, which we submitted to <strong>Mac App Store<\/strong> about an hour ago.<br \/>\n<br \/><\/br><br \/>\n<br \/><\/br><\/p>\n<table width=\"450\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tr>\n<td width=\"220\" valign=\"top\"><a href=\"mac\/mac_shareware\/worldtimezdesktop\/worldtimezdesktop_001.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"mac\/mac_shareware\/worldtimezdesktop\/thumbnail_worldtimezdesktop_001.jpg\" width=\"220\" height=\"140\" alt=\"Mac software WorldTimez Desktop\"\/><\/a><\/a><\/td>\n<td>&nbsp;<\/td>\n<td width=\"220\" valign=\"top\"><a href=\"mac\/mac_shareware\/worldtimezdesktop\/worldtimezdesktop_002.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"mac\/mac_shareware\/worldtimezdesktop\/thumbnail_worldtimezdesktop_002.jpg\" width=\"220\" height=\"140\" alt=\"Mac software WorldTimez Desktop\"\/><\/a><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p><\/br><br \/>\n<br \/><\/br><br \/>\nAs the name suggests, <strong>WorldTimez Desktop<\/strong> is a desktop version of <strong>WorldTimez<\/strong>, which we have for iPad users.  WorldTimez Desktop allows the user to keep track of the time around grobe, covering 22 major cities.  The list of the cities includes Tokyo (Japan), Beijing (China), Mumbai (India), Jakarta (Indonesia), Sydney (Australia), Perth (Australia), Wellington (New Zealand), Dubai (U.A.E.), Jerusalem (Israel), Nairobi (Kenya), Lagos (Nigeria), Cape Town (South Africa), London (U.K.), Praque (Czech Republic), Moscow (Russia), New York (U.S.), Chicago (U.S.), San Francisco (U.S.), Mexico City (Mexico), Caracas (Venezuela), Sao Paulo (Brazil), Santiago (Chille).
