Anything can be used to tell time, if you think about it!

Oo thats a great collection of times 

There's a documentary called The Measure of All Things I remember watching years ago; its about how measurements evolved and how they changed life, the first episode is about time, I think you'd enjoy it!
(sorry for the slightly creepy video thumbnail  )

I also have a challenge to suggest! It would be fun to invent an alternative kind of web time that was not based on division into equal units, but was instead based on activity or perception - for example does visiting this forum have a different speed to watching youtube? Does time spent coding count as more or less time than time spent playing a game?

I suppose all of those questions are fun because if you calculated your life based on perceptions of time instead of incremental time then you get a totally different perspective on age! E.g. insted of being forced to get older, you choose to get older based on your actions. (That might also explain why some people never grow up, even when they get old  )
