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. It comes with two voices, male and female, with a chance to download more from the developer's site, including a Morgan Freeman sound-alike.You can even create your own voice with a built-in editor, but the extensive alarm features are the real strength here. For example, you can set picture alarms with MP3 audio and schedule programs to launch at a certain time. There's even an interactive global day-and-night map with accurate sunrise and sunset times. The main-menu interface is compact and intuitive, and it supports skins for greater customization. A simple screensaver displays the current time and the world map.
Given all that, we think Talking Time Keeper is a reasonable download for those who want 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 real voices, including celebrity sound-alike voices (either at the click of a button or at specified intervals), plus chimes (including Grandfather Clock mode), alarms and timers, which display messages and pictures, run programs, shutdown your PC, 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 a voice-building tool (all you need is a microphone), and a skin building tool. You can decide exactly what is heard or displayed, and even add a personal touch by displaying a photo. Also included are screen saver and world day and night wallpaper options. Version 17.4 added Vista compatibility.

Version: Talking Time Keeper 17.4
"Worthy software for computer freek ,need enhanced interface,not necessary to buy"
Pros: This is very nice in its prime features, basically it is good that it is offering customized voice and skins for the software.
You can get more nice skins in their official site.
A worthy software to have for a computer freek to maintain his appointments and schedules
Cons: Mainly it is not advisable to spend $20 for this, you can go for some freeware.
It takes time to load, and its interface is not eye catching.

Version: Talking Time Keeper 17.4
Pros: Everything. I went through my appt book and move everything into Timekeeper, it's saved me several times already.
Some woman wrote it's infected with a virus. An obvious lie or just some clueless broad. There's no spyware either.
