Daylight Savings time? What is it?

November is approaching, so does the day light saving time as well. But people are often confused on when does the day light time fall for the year 2010 is to be set.

Remember as  always its the first Sunday of November. Infact, its the first Sunday after Halloween.

Every six months, the weather changes every six months and raised the same question – Can we get more or less one hour of sleep?!

On Sunday, November 7, 2010 at 19:30 EST (6:00 PST) all the clocks fall back to Standard Time also known as winter which means it has about 60 extra minutes of sleep or party. But have you ever asked why change the time every 6 months?!

The concept of winter and summer time was introduced in 1975. At that time the world had just survived the first oil crisis in history.

Then it was decided to change the time once a year to countries that are in different time zones, so you can use less energy.

The decision was a wise one sees that it is easier to get a position between sunrise and sunset. At that time, the system has been called the Environmental and Energy Management Agency (ADEME).

I will be changing the clock in the weekend of November.
