iRooster Turns Your $2,000 Mac Into an Alarm Clock

The idea is simple and I like the sense of humor these guys have pitching their software. Yes, the iRooster turns your $2,000 (or whatever) Mac into a very expensive alarm clock, but it does make sense to play your own music or sound effects instead of relying on a radio’s inevitable commerical to roust you from sleep.

We Say: Personally, I wake to a loud and soul-killling buzzer sound, but the interface is cool looking and it has a number of great bellls and whistles, like repeat wake up times, the ability to wake to your favorite podcast and more. Great for students. Price: $9.95 with free to try download. Mac OSX only. Source: Chimp Software

    Hi Alice - Chimp Software is actually just one person: me. I created iRooster three years ago when I had trouble getting up in time for my last year of college classes. Since then, I’ve been working for a fairly large software company and developing iRooster in my spare time. I’m glad you like it!

    Cheers,
    Aaron

    Sécurité : Porte blindée ou alarme ?…

    Avant de prendre une décision finale sur une porte blindée ou une signalisation, pesez le pour et le contre, parce que les portes blindées ont aussi leurs défauts……
