Can I convert time zone calculations (18:30 CEST to GMT+1 for example) with Google?

You can do that with WolframAlpha.

18:30 CEST to GMT+1

  • I used to use Google for small stuff but when I discovered WolframAlpha I was deeply impressed. At first because its ability to integrate/derive math functions. O:)

EveryTimeZone is a nice webapp that gives you a really quick simple view of the time (you can drag the 'current time' around) in various common time zones

Google currently does not do time conversions but you can always ask Google the current time at a location. Just search for "time in <city>" (e.g. time in london).

That is the way I use to quickly get the time in a different location. Of course you still have to calculate the difference yourself.

EDIT: I just found out that this trick only works if the "interface language" for Google is set to English.

Seems to be working now (in 2018):

Permatime is a nice little site that sets up a URL for your event time and displays it in the viewers local time.

e.g. The 2010 World Cup Final in Johannesburg, South Africa.

I've found these:

http://www.timezoneconverter.com/cgi-bin/tzc.tzc

http://www.onlineconversion.com/timezone.php

Google supplies a reference page but doesn't seem to offer the service itself.

I really like timeanddate.com's interface and the Time Zone Converter near the bottom works well.
