    It will even pre-load your choice of 160 preset online news web sites, or some of 98 built-in links to popular comic strips.
    And Wake up News is more than just a computer alarm clock: Use it to set reminders, from birthdays to that date you must not forget. And launch countdown timers in a snap for 15 or 20-minute delays, for instance.

    Detailed description:

    Wake up News is not only an alarm clock, it is a new way to wake up and it replaces any reminder service. It can be used simply as an alarm clock but, you can also select a couple of newspapers and Wake up News will automatically connect to the Internet (if not on apermanent connection) using your regular Internet connection and load the newspapers you asked for.

    This alarm clock and reminder software comes with some preset alarm clock sounds but you can also have it play your own MP3 files (media player required).

    Wake up News computer alarm clock development was started in 1999 by Eric Bernatchez, a freelance journalist who wanted to read his newspapers online in order to save hundreds in newspaper subscribtion fees annually and avoid having to cope with tons of papers to recycle. After having been downloaded by more than 50,000 people worldwide, Wake up News has had several improvements to become a fully featured alarm clock & reminder software.
