Can you tell the time?

I have just gotten myself a new clock that displays the time in code...

The Blue circles represent a lit up light while the white circles are lights that are turned off..

What time does my clock say it is?

No silly play on words here or anything like that going on here.
Straight up logical puzzle based on the picture. :cool:

Good luck

Does this clock use seconds or just hours and mins?

Binary. 21:59:47

I was going to say

21:45:36

If you say its a straight up logic puzzle then i doubt its binary, could be wrong?

21:59:47 its a binary clock
I think this means im a true geek

Actually looking at it again,

It prob is binary and is 21:59:47, they way i was thinking was you ad up the numbers each blue dot represents. So first line 2, 2nd = 1, 3rd = 3+1 = 4, 4th = 4+1=5, 5th = 3, 6th = 3+2+1 = 6. I'd say you could do one that way too?

Yup

21.59:47

ps, i actually do have this binary clock on my desk :rolleyes:

Ah well

GEEK AND PROUD!!
