Detailed Description

Interface for every kind of objects used to observe the ticking of the clock.

ITimeObserver is an object which observers our global clock. Each time clock ticks (this is not every second, but every frame) observer will be notified about this and can do his work. Good example for such an observer is a timer, which is updated every frame and provide time for parts of your application. This also can be an alarm-clock which wait until certain time point and then fires.
