Talking Time Keeper 11.2

CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET Staff

This software alarm clock earns big points for its extensive features and flexibility. Talking Time Keeper lets you schedule alarms, set timers, and check world times. You'll find three default voices--one male and two female--all of which have British accents. If accents are not your cup of tea, you can download more voices or create your own with a built-in editor. The program's real strength lies in its extensive alarm features. You can do everything from setting picture alarms with MP3 audio to scheduling programs to launch. The program even includes an interactive global day-and-night map, with accurate sunrise and sunset times. The main-menu interface is compact, intuitive, and supports skins for greater customization. In the final analysis, we think Talking Time Keeper is a great download for anyone looking for a time manager with a human touch.

Publisher's description

From Mark Judge :

Talking Time Keeper is a fully featured desktop time package. Its features include the ability to announce the time using built-in voices (either at the click of a button or at specified intervals), plus chimes, alarms, and timers, which display messages and pictures, run programs, speak, and play sounds and MP3s, all with a snooze option. The application includes a calendar displaying upcoming alarms; more than 250 world-time locations (editable); a day and night world map; the phases of the moon; stopwatches with lap timers; and atomic time synchronization. The program also includes an easy-to-use voice-building tool. All you need is a microphone to make your own voices. More downloadable voices also are available for free, as are additional skins for the interface with state-of-the-art animation. The interface is easy to use and totally configurable. You can decide exactly what is heard or displayed, and even add a personal touch by displaying a photo.
