Desktop Earth 2.0

Here's something interesting that serves almost no real purpose, whatsoever: Desktop Earth 2.0 from CodeFromThe70s.org.

Basically, it's a Windows active desktop module that displays, in real-time, a map of the Earth and the position of the sun.

It's got a bunch of settings that let you control everything from refresh rate to cloud positions and is, generally, just a neat little thing at which to stare whilst zoning out at work.

Check it out.
