Flip Watch

Split-flap dashboard on every new tab — weather, markets, news, Hacker News, quotes, and more.

FLIP WATCH The retro split-flap dashboard, on every new tab. Remember those airport departure boards, the ones with the satisfying click-clack of each character flipping into place? Flip Watch brings that exact moment to every new tab in Chrome. No hardware, no $2,500 purchase, no shelf space. Just a beautiful, always-fresh ambient display whenever you open a tab. Set it up on an extra monitor and have a relaxing 1 minute break from whatever you're doing.
