College Alarm Clock is developed as a personal alarm clock for your PC. It features a 7-day format so that you can wake up earlier/later on different days of the week. Save/Load your weekly schedule to your hard drive. It will play any media file stored on your PC or LAN, though you must have some player installed for each media file you wish to play (for example, Winamp for mp3s or CDs, Real Player for .RMs).

It's almost perfect to me, it just needs a snoozing option. Without it, I have to use Tarry91' alarm clock.

Definitely like the simplicity but it should be easier to set to the time and paste times between days. Would rather just use Sunbird or Rainlendar with the "repeat" function set to weekly. |

I've been using version 4.13 for awhile. Love the program. It got even better w/ v5.01. Added Contacts, Calendar, and ToDo list to the notes. Don't need to Extract as it have an option to install portably on a thumbdrive (although no options to choose a folder).

AM is good, but others you might want to try are Keynote and Totaltext. Both have more features, are portable, and freeware.

smaragdus REALLY? wow I didn't realize that looks over substance was so important to sum people. Now I'm curious what others think about the "looks" of V4 or if most just don't care like me, please don't misunderstand I understand how you feel its just foreign 2me is all I'm saying. Of course if V3 suits your needs then by all means that's the correct version for you to use, no matter what I or others think. Enjoy.:)

Is it possible to disable the ID3v1 tagging? It's messing up the grouping of my mp3 files when i import them in the library. |
Tell When Done watches a process running in another Window and notifies you when that process is complete. Since many tools are written without an alarm to signal completion, this program frees you to focus on other work.

XNote Timer is a simple countdown timer and stopwatch software. The program can use two modes: a count-up method to measure time intervals and count-down mode to work as an alarm. The alarm can launch any application or play audio files from a variety of formats (mp3, wav, midi, etc). The interface is a large, re-sizable view, ideal for either public presentations or a small icon.
Global hotkeys are available to start/stop/reset.
Note: The program can no longer be found on the original website, so I am redirecting the download link to CNet.

Installation instructions updated. Note that I didn't test the "install as portable" option, which might work fine.

I just tried one and it no longer appears to be stealth. The individual clocks used to store settings in the application folder as hidden files, but that no longer appears to be the case. |
