A few of of my Favorite Timers

Monitoring our time can always be a challenge.  Here are a few tools to help you a long.


Task Timer a chrome web app

After installing the app you can create a set of tasks that you want to time. You can run multiple timers at once or run them individually. The timer functions on a countdown basis. A chime sounds when time has expired on each timer.

You know how I love classtools.net

This one is particularly awesome because you can use popular music from YouTube.

A third timer option is to simply type into Google search "set timer" followed by an amount of time and a countdown timer is displayed. An alarm beeps when time is up. You can make the timer appear full screen without advertisements by clicking a little box icon to the right of the timer. You can see this feature in action in the video below.
