I don't see that there's any point. I don't know about other operating
systems, but Windows displays the time in the lower right corner of the
screen anyway, and most people already have the time on their wrist or
somewhere within easy view. For those people who don't already have
ready access to the time, their need to know the time probably isn't
greater when they happen to be visiting your site than it is at any
other time. So, assuming your web pages exist for some purpose, why take
up space you could be using for that purpose to display something
virtually useless instead?
