Chameleon Clock

As I have been presenting my WebCasts on ASP.NET, there has been one question that has come up in every single broadcast - and it has nothing to do with ASP.NET :) Every time I share my desktop to perform a demo people see that my taskbar clock looks like:

and I am always asked where I got this clock, so I thought I'd share the answer in my blog as well. It's a shareware program called Chameleon Clock available at http://www.softshape.com/software/desktop/chamclock/features/ that I have used for years. It has a nice alarm system too, and tons of skins if you don't like this gold on black.

That program is indeed quite cool - a big feature request - to import alarms from outlook.

I found more professional program: 1st Clock. It does not display skins, but it allows you to display any info in your taskbar clock + powerful alarms + time synchronization. http://www.1stclock.com

1st Clock allows you to add any number of alarms with custom messages, sounds, colors and icons. You can play MP3, WAV, MIDI, Audio CD sounds and launch applications with the alarm. You can create your own melody to play using your built-in PC speaker. Alarms can be snoozed and birthday ages can be calculated automatically. You can easily disable and enable all alarm sounds. You can use WinAmp to play MP3 files. You can transfer alarms between computers using the alarm backup/restore feature in 1st Clock. You have several convenient ways to add alarms using the popup menu, calendar, keyboard shortcuts and more.
