Best Free Timer and Alarm Clock [1]

Introduction

Lots of people use their computer for almost anything. So why not use it as an alarm clock, waking you up from your dreams? And what about reminding you to go for an appointment right away before it's too late while being engrossed in something else on a computer?

There are lots of alarm clocks on the internet, but most of them don't wake your computer from standby or hibernation. Why leave your computer running all night just for one important task: to wake you up?!

These are freeware programs which might be useful and interesting to you if you don't like that waste of energy either.

Other Alarm Clocks

These are unrated free alarm clocks, mostly without waking from standby:

  • Marxio Timer [15] executes action specified by user (turn off, restart computer, hibernate, suspend, logout user, lock desktop, display text, play sound, run other application). It's run at time specified or when idle time elapses. It can also repeat actions after n minutes or start countdown seconds to execute action.
  • Karen's Alarm Clock [16], turn your $2,000 computer into a $20 alarm clock! Set up to five different alarm times. Wake up to a beep, any wave or MIDI file, even a track from your favorite audio CD. Great for travellers, or the executive who likes to sleep on the job. :)
  • Cool Timer [17], simple, no-nonsense, handy timer utility with cool, customizable interface.
  • Talking Alarm Clock [18] lets your computer remind you of important dates and events. It uses Microsoft? Agent to show a talking animated alarm. The alarm can also play any sound you choose and includes a handy snooze button.
  • Alarm Clock by Tarry91 [19] is a professional alarm clock that does not require installation. You can configure multiple alarm events including recurring alarm and optionally launch a file or MP3 song when the time is up. Other features include a choice of GUI color, customizable alert messages and system tray support. No installation needed, copy the *.exe file to a folder of your choice.
  • Kukuklok [20] is an online alarm clock. It is free and has an unbelievable user friendly interface. It offers five different, very efficient alarm sounds, which guarantees that at least one of them will wake you up. It is really easy to set your time. Simply use the arrows to choose an hour and minute. The clock is in 24 hour format, so you know when the alarm is going to sound. Another great feature is that the time is in your computer time, not the server time. Also, if your internet connection goes down, no worries, your alarm will still go off.
