Daylight Savings Time

I was planning out the schedule of the Biz Growth Live calls yesterday (we have some tremendous speakers lined up – but more of that in future posts).
What I was reminded of was the fact that Daylight Savings Time changed last year in the US.

So I did some research to check the dates of Daylight Savings Time for 2008 and beyond so that we could ensure that the speakers all had the correct time for the calls and I could update my calendar.

If you have clients across the globe you may therefore find the following of assistance:

Daylight Savings Time in the US

Beginning in 2007, most of the United States begans Daylight Saving Time at 2:00 a.m. on the second Sunday in March and reverts to standard time on the first Sunday in November.
Daylight Savings Time in EU

In the European Union, Summer Time begins and ends at 1:00 a.m. Universal Time (Greenwich Mean Time). It begins the last Sunday in March and ends the last Sunday in October.
