If you guys want, i can totally hack the solar system vis a vis pyrokinetic manipulation of the distance between here and a certain burning ball o'hydrogen, and give you an extra hour - that way there'll be a 24:00 and 0:00 will mean 25 o'clock.
The earth may begin spiraling out of control and out of orbit, mass chaos may ensue as a result of billions of living creature's natural biorhythms going out of whack/ planetary jet lag, and the dark lord Shabraniogsoth may rise from the infernal maw between demensions to gnaw at our perceptions of reality and give rise to an age of eternal waking nightmare....
But everybody could really use that extra hour, amirite?

Man if you're going to make a joke at least be factually accurate. Changing the Earth-Sun distance will change the length of the year but do jack in terms of changing the length of the day.

Hmm, y'know I always wondered why there was never a metric system for measuring time. The vast majority of the world uses a metric system to measure everything else.

There is in a way. Otherwise we wouldn't have femtoseconds and the like. The SI unit of time is pretty much just various powers of seconds.
And now that I've killed the joy with facts I must depart.
