Random alarms so that we can not fool the clock
We already know how to use our Palm as an alarm clock with advanced. However, there is a problem that even the best world clock puodía solve ... until now. How many times have set the alarm clock to ring five or ten minutes before getting up, and so have a little more time and do not miss the bus or simply arrive a little early to work. However, it is a very innocent: those hours, and knowing that the alarm has sounded early, avoiding the temptation to stay in bed a little longer, and even go back to sleep while we do, which is the worst cure the disease.
But what if we knew not to far in advance has sounded the alarm? We would be forced to get up, because if we do not know much or little time left over. This reasoning has materialized so original in FalseAlarm, an alarm clock for our Palm-based BigClock that does just that: to generate a clock advance a random period of time between the time of the Palm, and sound the alarm in relation to that clock. Even that can be configured to wait for the number of minutes before we want to show the real time again, not to look and find out how long we spare.


We chose the maximum deviation in minutes and activate the alarm


We let the program run and the alarm will sound when you want
As we see, yet another attempt to solve the problem of the syndrome known as "matutinus dormilonis." Now what we need to do is hide all the other clocks in the room to avoid the temptation of seeing the real!

Wow ... excellent post ... fooling oneself without knowing how long extra ... before we actually get married and have children this program would have been a "must have" in my Palm ... I now have clocks that remind me of living I have to wake up this clear ... that the first thing they say is ... "Dad I want my milk" ...
Nothing like the natural thing Mr Anderson
In fact, this method does is 100% effective
