I already used 24 hour time and ISO8601 date formats when I lived in Canada (up until 12 years ago).

It's like using metric. Just use it.



If you can convince my government and my CEO, I'm game!


I'm propagating the ISO date format with Guerilla tactics. Whenever I come across meeting minutes or documentation pages using a different date format, I silently reformat into ISO date format and then it just catches on. The "normative force of the factual" can be strong.


I like this. The guerilla war for universal understanding!
