First of all please do not read this if you are easily offended or religiously inclined. The site is intended to be lighthearted, and that is how it should be viewed.

When you log in, you are prompted to input your birthdate and a few other simple details. The program then announces the exact date that you are going to die, so you can get those nasty little jobs done beforehand, such as writing your will and choosing a coffin etc?!

There is a counter on screen which counts down in seconds how long you have left on this lovely globe.

For some light hearted amusement you can read e-mails which people have sent in, some of which are from those mortals who take life too seriously and have some quite strange points to make - such as the fact that the program doesn't acurately predict the date of death - if it did then the guy who wrote it would be richer than Bill Gates!

Anyway, it is worth a visit just for amusements sake, the URL is www.deathclock.com but as I said if you are offended easily then leave well alone.
