TinyAlarm

This has been posted in various places recently, but I happened to find it independently and thought I’d pass it on as though I was really cool. TinyAlarm sets an alarm for a time of your choice. It sits in the menubar of OS X (you do have a Mac, right?) so it’s always available, and has a very simple interface.

    Can’t wait for a BSD unix laptoper. It’s only 1GHz G4, but if it can run Eclipse, that’s all I care about.

    So long as you chuck some memory at it I’m sure it will serve you well (but seriously, get the battery checked!)

    [...] they simplify it down even more than the original tip. This allows me to get rid of the excellent TinyAlarm, which is great as it’s the only program that requires Rosetta on my MacBook. I understand [...]
