Hi,
So this is my first time posting an app/widget to the forums. After seeing xkcd.com/now, I thought it deserved to be made into a widget that doesn't require internet connection, so I used this project to learn how to make android widgets. Turns out it's simpler than I thought.
To read this widget you have to find your location on the inside Earth map, and compare its location to the 24 hour clock on the outside.
Here is a more in depth explanation.
All of xkcd.com is creative commons so there shouldn't be a problem with distributing this app.
Here is the play store URL: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.reshefelisha.xkcdnowwidget
In the attached screenshot you can see how it works. I'm in the US West Coast, so it gives you a demonstration of how to read the clock.
Enjoy
