The site offers two features:
- default: displaying the current time in any number of time zones;
- custom: converting a given time of a given time zone to any number of time zones.
To utilize the default feature:
In the matrix of abbreviations select the zones you want the current time displayed in then click "Convert" to get them in a table.
Show me how!

As for the custom:
Check the "Customize settings" box, pick the time zone you want the conversion use as the basis, add the hours (0-23) and minutes (0-59) you wish to convert, select the zones in the matrix of zone abbreviations you want convert into, then click "Convert".
Show me how!

Other features:
"Select All" button to pick everything in the matrix;
"Clear All" button to quickly deselect everything in there;
"Restart" to reset the whole application.
If you are finding yourself getting lost among the abbreviations, check The List
Time zones...
...are areas of Earth's surface where timepieces are synchronized to display the same time.
They just vaguely follow the longitudes for political or economical considerations, so they largely simplify measuring time. Along the 0° longitude lays the zone of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), a time standard which serves as a point of reference for the other time zones, which are offset from UTC, usually by whole hours. Due to practicalities and other reasons there are more time zones than the expected 24. Furthermore due to the daylight saving some regions use two time zones.

In a zone several regions can exist with their own names. I tried to select one from each zone to represent the whole for easier usage. What other regions can be found in a zone? See The List for the individual zones.
