In Melbourne, has daylight savings ended? Some say it has and some say it hasn't! The TV says it has and on other channels it says it hasn't. The computer says it has, but the internet says it hasn't! What is the time and when does daylight savings end? Some say it ends Today (26/3) and some say next week (2/4/06).

The source below is from the goverment website of the state of Victoria, for the 2005/2006 year (this year) it ends on 2/4/06 at 2 am EST (being an American and living in our EST I don't know if Austraila calls one of it's time zones EST, so I will assume that it's Melbourne local time (GMT +10), and not my time zone (GMT -5), and I am using your notation of the date, 2 April 2006). However, next year it ends on 25/3/07, which is where everyone is getting that from

It's "aren't people" -- FYI\nPeople are mostly kidding.  The date today is 6/6/06 - NOT 666 as in six hundred sixty-six.  No one said the world is going to end on 666 anyway.  It's a mark - not a date

It's called "Daylight Saving Time". It is believed to save electricity by prolonging the day with one hour.

You have your time zone settings set to a zone an hour behind yours.... its not the daylight savings times options fault.\n\nMy guess you have set your clock to a zone that matches your time zone whilst daylight savings was in operation, such as GMT... now summer is over it has automatically taken the hour off, as it should, which as revealed the  time zone error.\n\njust double click your clock and the clock configuration box will open. go to the time zone and check that the correct zone is selected. \n\nIf it still does it, you may requesting the time from the wrong server.. you can adjust this on the internet time tab.  as long as the time zone is set correct, it trial and error to choose the correct server.\n\nif this still does not resolve it.. you can work around it by simply setting a time zone that is one hour ahead of yours... which would give you the correct time.\n\nRemember if you are successful and find the correct zone and the clock works ok..... and then it gets to summer and it automatically goes ahead one hour, and you are not in an area that does that... just uncheck the daylight savings box in the zone settings tab.\n\nGood luck!

OK, it depends on where you are at in the world. \nIf you are in New York city, subtract 5 hours from the GMT time to get local time. Chicago 6, Denver 7, Los Angeles 8; you get the picture. Of course, that changes with Daylight Savings time. \n\nTo know for sure, check your computer's time/date settings. For Windows PCs, double click the time in the lower-right corner. It'll bring up a box that'll have a "Time Zone" tab. If you go there, you should see the something like "GMT -xx:00", where the xx is a number of hours. Subtract that number (or add it, if the number is +xx:00), and that's the sent time.

some do, not everyone acknowledges daylight savings time.  I will post a long thing here you can read through....or if you dont want to read through it you can click on the website cite below and its about halfway down the page.\n\n\n\nAfrica\n\nEgypt\nEgypt normally observes DST between the last Thursday in April and the last Thursday in September when the clocks are three hours ahead of Greenwich Mean Time (UTC+3). The change is at midnight (local time); i.e. one second after 23:59:59 on that Thursday becomes 23:00:00 Thursday. The date does not change when the first 00:00 midnight occurs, for all practical purposes, midnight does not occur until then. However, the 2006 rule is an exception: the clock falls back September 22 at 01:00 so as not to disrupt Ramadan, and possibly similar exceptions will apply in 2007 and 2008.\n\n\n\nNamibia\nDST begins on the first Sunday in September, and ends on the first Sunday in April.\n\n\nTunisia\nTunisia adopted Daylight saving time for the first time in 2005 starting 1st May 2005 and following EU time schedules thereafter. This comes as a move by the government to try and promote saving of energy in the wake of the ever-rising cost of fuel in the world market.\n\n\nAsia\n\nChina\nThe People's Republic of China experimented with DST from 1986, but abandoned it in the 1990s. The PRC now uses one time zone for the whole country; the size of the nation was a major factor why DST was not considered practical in China.\n\n\nIndia\nIndia used DST briefly during war times.\n\n\nIran\nBefore 1979, DST was observed in Iran. Thereafter it was abandoned until 1989, when it started on the first day of Farvardin (21-22 March) in the Iranian calendar and ended on the first day of Mehr (23-24 September). In 2006, Iran stopped observing DST.[14]\n\n\nIsrael\nIsrael observes DST starting on the last Friday before April 2 and ending at 2 AM on the Sunday between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Until 2005, the schedule was variable: the only requirement was that there be at least 150 days per year of DST, and was set out each year by the Ministry of the Interior.[15]\n\nIn territories controlled by the Palestinian National Authority, DST ends later, which can lead to some confusion. On September 5, 1999, terrorists were transporting a bomb that they mistakenly thought was set to go off at 5:30 PM Israel Standard Time; it was actually set for 5:30 PM Palestinian Daylight Time, which was an hour ahead. As a result, the bomb went off while the bomb was still being transported, killing the terrorists (and earning them a Darwin Award).[16]\n\n\nJapan\nFrom 1948 to 1951, Japan observed DST between May and September every year under an initiative of the U.S.-led occupation army. The unpopularity of DST, for which people complained about sleep disruption and longer daytime labor (some workers had to work from early morning till dusk), caused Japan to abandon DST around the same time that its independence was restored. Since then, DST has never been officially implemented nationwide in Japan.\n\nStarting in the late 1990s, a movement to re-install DST in Japan gained some popularity, aiming at saving energy and increasing recreational time. The Hokkaido region is particularly in favor of this movement because daylight starts as early as 3:30 am (in standard time) there in summer due to its high latitude and its location near the eastern edge of the time zone. In the early 2000s, a few local governments and commerce departments promoted unmandated hour-earlier work schedule experiments during summer time without officially resetting clocks.\n\n\nJordan\nJordan UTC+2 observes daylight saving time from the end of March to the end of October.\n\n\nKazakhstan\nKazakhstan made a decision to stop observing DST in 2005.\n\n\nKyrgyzstan\nKyrgyzstan voted to stop observing DST in 2005 by remaining on UTC+6 as Standard Time (which used to be Kyrgyzstan Summer Time) to still save energy.\n\n\nPakistan\nPakistan experimented

We won't know that answer until tomorrow at the earliest.\n\nAbsentee ballots are still coming in and polls aren't quite closed yet on the East Coast. (It is 4.53 mst as I type.)  And many states allow people to vote early.  Those are all counted tonight, even though the people did not technically vote today.  ; )\n\nEdit: I voted last week.  The turn-out in my part of Colorado is great!
