Spring Forward 3 Weeks Early
Who knew that August 8, 2005 would cause another mini-Y2K in 2007? The US government decided in 2005 to extend Daylight Saving Time. We will now “Spring Forward” the 2nd Sunday in March (March 11th this year) and “Fall Back” the first Sunday in November (November 4th this year).
Anyone running a Windows Operating System other than Vista, will need to make sure their computers at home and work are prepared. Microsoft has created a patch for the issue. Click here for the Microsoft Daylight Saving Time Help and Support Center. Also, they have provided a list of products that will be affected. Click here to see the list.
How, if at all, will the extra month of Daylight Saving Time affect your business? Have you already applied the necessary patches to any software you use?
