It's not worth using an sand timer anymore. The cool thing about today is that you can have the exact time/countdown in your hand anytime you think of it, without purchasing any item.
History of time measurement
The history of time measurement is the story of the search for more consistent and accurate ways to measure time. Early human groups recorded the phases of the Moon some 30,000 years ago, but the first minutes were counted accurately only 400 years ago.
The measurement of time began with the invention of sundials in ancient Egypt some time prior to 1500 B.C. However, the time the Egyptians measured was not the same as the time today's clocks measure.
Today we rely on atomic clocks for our most accurate time measurements. It was not until 1884 that a conference at Greenwich reached agreement on global time measurement and adopted Greenwich Mean Time as the international standard.
But the development of time measurement has not stopped even in modern times. From atomic clocks, to digital wristwatches, we've gone all the way to smart apps. And the smartest are, of course, online apps like ours, which you don't even have to install.
