Extension summary

On line version (see my Speaking Clock for off-line).

It's simple clock, inspirated while using Chromebook™.

When taskbar is hidden you may want to know what time is. It is running on background. When clicked it speaks the current time. It's self-speaking every 15 minutes too.

Warning! This version works on line. It reads network every time you want to hear the time. Just because it uses Google Translate engine much more languages are available than in off-line version (text-to-speak engine).

Certainly it works smoothly in desktop Google Chrome™ browser too.

Prior to Google Chrome™ 34 version, you have to tap an icon to bring it to the top of screen. After the 34, it displays on the top itself.

It's tested in Chromebook™ where it works like gadget/widget, especially when taskbar is hidden.
