I hate my alarm clock like I hate little else. There's not much that's worse than the ringing sound ripping me from sleep (or if not that, the joys of our local pop music station -- bleh). Besides, I always hit the snooze bar so often I'm still an hour late getting out of bed. This thing actually runs away from you after it starts going off, forcing you to get your lazy butt out of bed. Genius. (via Shiny Shiny)

So it's pretty cool that my cell phone has a built-in alarm feature. It's downright awesome that I can set *three* alarms at different times just in case I hit snooze on the first one. And the second one.

Clocky, though, is better even than CATS who come in at the first hint of alarm, knead your intestines, mew politely at first then more insistently as the snooze-reprieves mount in number, and then who finally snuggle up with you in resignation, content with your apparent decision to skip work and spend the day catering to their needs and napping with them.

Clocky is the anti-cat. Clocky screams at you to getup! getup! getup! and before you can smash his little brain in, he... well, he runs away. That's right, he gets the hell out of Dodge, all "Nyah Nyah! Can't catch me! Getup!!"

Oh I know I'm going to hate this little bastid when I get him. And oh, will I get him. (via PopGadget - Personal Tech for Women)

I got this little guy for Christmas last year. It's AMAZING! I haven't been late in almost a year!

Cool alarm clock on wheels!!

from japan?

it negates me having to set 5 separate alarms!

great invention

If you're anything like me (you know, with sleeping disorders and such), alarm clocks do you no good. They go off, you turn it off and you don't even remember doing it. This one goes off and runs away from you. That should do the trick.
