iWake to iRooster! Morning Mac download

iRooster

If it weren't for this nifty little alarm program, I'd still be sleeping right now!  For the past few months I've used sixDollarChimp's iRooster to wake me and my iMac up out of our sleep mode(s) to my favourite iTunes playlist (at the moment it's the Garden State Soundtrack).

Try it for free for two weeks and you won't think twice about the $10 price tag.

Mo iRooster

My fave features

       

  • Easy, easy, easy to use (three clicks to ready, set, sleep)
    •    
  • Giant-sized display so I can see the time (without my contacts!)
    •    
  • Giant-sized snooze button so I can prolong my sleep (1 to 30 minutes)
    •    
  • Lullabye mode that rocks you to sleep

    •    
  • Latest version includes Chimp Tunes, which lets you see album artwork and find what tunes are waking up other iRooster enthusiasts

Now if only I can get my roommates to buy Macs and ditch their old-school bleepin' alarm clocks for an i-Rooster wake-up ;).

(Recent iRooster reviews can be found in the April issue of MacHome and The Apple Blog.)
