time, but I wasn't able to find an answer searching the archives, so
here goes!

Hello creative people,
Can I get your opinion on blogging services? I'm unsure on which one to start
using: Blogger, WordPress or TypePad.
Since most of us blog nowadays - it's a nice way to show people and potential
clients how smart and alert we are to our design surroundings (from evil
Matthew,
You might want to search the IxDA posts of recent. There's been much
discussion on schools and UX/UI/IxD/Etc. I believe UMD or UBalt has HCI/IxD
type of programs. But I don't know much about these programs. If anyone on
the list is in one of these, I'd be curious to hear their
UMD has a great program - Schneiderman teaches there - and there are at
least a few people on the list that have gone there.

Hello,
I am working on a web site where folks need to enter a time. Currently
they use and are comfortable with military time on a green screen. I'd
like to reduce potential errors by using a select input, but what a pain
it is when using a keyboard. Other considerations are using standard
time
What kind of errors are you trying to prevent? My experience with 24-hr
time is that it is easier to enter because each time is only used once
each day. For example you can't get confused as to which 12:00 o'clock it
is, it can either be 12:00 or 24:00.
Are you working on a U.S. military
I agree with steve.schang. What are you trying to fix? Can you
simply use the same input mechanism they are using on the green
screen?
You say that you would like to reduce potential errors but what
errors are they experiencing right now?

Currently they can enter anything they want, for example they could
enter eleven in the morning or 11pm or 11:00 am ect. The entry
just gets read and acted upon. So right now nothing is an error.
The new system needs be able to track and store entered times, so they
can know longer be freeform
I stumbled across this while browsing for interesting new music gear...

page, not at the top. ick.)
The basic idea is that you've got a bunch of physical controls, at this
point knobs, that attach to an LCD screen
In that case, I'd say it's more a case of the users having enjoyed the
luxury of entering imprecise data and that it's merely a matter of making
them aware of the change to more precise time notation.
We use 24-hour time notation here in Norway and I find it far more precise
than AM/PM time – I
Thanks Fredrick for the advice.
The second two bullet point solutions you mentioned are the area of concern.
These folks are keyboard users, steppers and drop-downs can be cumbersome.
Especially the drop-down when selecting times like 9am “09:00”, I would need to
hit zero 9 times.

Shannon: Thanks, that helps a lot.
Since your users are comfortable entering military time you should
take advantage of that since it simplifies the UI in that you don't
need to include a place for them to enter AM versus PM.
The edit box in which they will type the time should only allow

Don't confuse user input with what the system processes. Outlook is an
awesome example of a time field being able to accept a reasonably large
array of time formats and internally translate them to something usable by
the machine.
There's a tenet in programming that sounds roughly like input
