The Pi Day of the century is only a few days away! One day every century, the numbers of the current month, day, year, hour, minute and second line up to match the first 10 digits of the mathematical constant pi: 3.14.15 9:26:53. We made a special clock for Pi Day, with date and time in "pi format". Please take a minute to check it out! http://time.is/pi_day Any feedback is appreciated.

AFAIR from various L14N sources, that date order is used only in the US. So shouldn't that be US Pi time of the century, if you can ignore the implied leading zero in 09:...? Low res annual international Pi time would be 3-14 15, though if you can ignore the implied leading zero, you could also argue for 15:9:26.53... ;^>

I'm not sure what you mean by that; there is no fourteenth month. (As you yourself say, month–day order is mostly a US thing, not an international one.) Pi Day on 3/14 is a US thing pretty much by definition. The rest of the world sometimes celebrates Pi Approximation day on 22/7. Cheers, Philip
