I've got two analog clocks on the walls, a watch on my wrist, and a  
digital clock on my toolbar.  What makes you think I need your site to  
tell me what time it is? 
 
As for Wikipedia - I don't see any clock on the pages when I view them. 
 
You can include a clock if you want - but it looks stupid.
