How to instantly get the current time for any city or town
Do you ever find yourself needing to find out what time it is in some distant city?
If so, there’s an easy way to get the current time for any city, town or zip code in seconds, even if it’s in another country. Here’s how:
1 – Open your favorite search engine.
2 – Type time xxxxxx into the search box (where xxxxxx is the name of the city/town in question), then press the Enter key or tap the Search icon.
For example, to use Google to get the current time in Seoul, South Korea you would simply type time Seoul into the Google search box.
That’s all there is to it. Now you know how to use Google, DuckDuckGo or most any other search engine as your very own global timepiece.
