Generic Countdown Timer
A simple countdown timer. You can set the time in hours, minutes, seconds and an alarm will ring once the counter reaches zero. You can customize the font, the skin and you can choose how you want the time to be displayed.
One important feature of this Widget is that you can choose to initialize the counter with a default time when the Widget starts, which is convenient when you always need a countdown for the same amount of time (like in my case, I only need it to know when my coffee is about to be done).

November 16, 2007 · version 2.0.1Works great!
Feature request: option to also play the alarm before the countdown reaches zero (from, say, a minute up to a few minutes, optionally with it sounding each minute within that period before the end of the countdown--sort of a tickler, or outright nag); this would be rather more useful for those countdowns to a specific time.
Thanks.

November 16, 2007 · version 2.0.1This an awesome little widget...in my opinion, the best in it's class. I would recommend one MINOR adjustment. Can a check box be added to the Font or Skin preferences to either allow the time to blink or to stay on constantly once the countdown feature has been completed? Thanks for creating a great, nearly perfect and useful widget.

November 16, 2007 · version 2.0.1Excellent widget. Tasteful *&* resizeable *&* user-friendly. 1 req: Wd like a visual alarm option (pop up? screen flash? ??) for when I hv 2 mute computer. Something that might work whether timer is topmost, regular window level or heads-up. Wd also benefit others who rely on sight more than hearing (e.g. Deaf & hard-of-hearing). Slainte!
