CLOCK!

Chances are you forget about particular events or tasks which need to be performed, especially if you have a busy schedule. Using a computer has its advantages, and you might want to rely on specialized applications like CLOCK! in order to configure one or more alarms so you’re never late or sorry.

On the bright side of things, the application saves you the time and effort required to go through a setup process, so you can take it with you on a USB flash drive in case you want to have alarms active regardless of the computer you’re using. Moreover, registry entries remain intact, so the health status of the target computer is not affected.

The application comes with a custom-made window, which can fit in nearly all types of desktop environments. The window can be freely moved across the desktop, and it shows the current time, day, and date. It’s also fitted with several controls which take you to the alarm configuration screen, as well as the corresponding options.

It stays on top of everything else by default, but you can choose to disable this, and even to hide it from the taskbar. The application can be made to ring at regular intervals, which can prove quite handy in time tracking. You can choose from a couple of built-in sound effects, or load a custom WAV file.

As far as alarms go, setting one up only requires you to provide the target time, which is specified in a 24 hour mode. Multiple items can be created and accessed from a drop-down menu. Each alarm can be fitted with a custom message and audio alert. Note that you need to hit the Esc key to dispose of the message box when an alarm goes off.

All things considered, we can state that CLOCK! can surely help you manage your time a little better. Alarms are easy to configure, and can be fitted with both message and audio alerts. It comes with a slick interface which is both fun and intuitive.
