what does it mean? wait a second, connected with earth.i read an article in a paper stating that, the world time keepers are adding an extra second t o their atomic clocks to keep intact with the earth's slightly slowing rotation.so an extra second will be addend on to december 31 after 6.59 pm and before 7pm eastern standard time.
That extra second will make 2008-already long with an extra day on february 29 the longest year since 1992.Most cellular mobiles and computer operating system check with the world's atomic clocks and update their time to add the leap second automatically .
