Full Description:
TikTokToDo(tm) is an easy to use multi alarm countdown timer requiring little in the way of computer skills. Simply add as many timers as you want and drag them with the mouse to the required time. You can work in the conventional way by putting something in to cook then setting the timer or by setting a timer for the time the meal should be served and working backwards - or a combination of both, using your PC sound or mobile phone for alarms. The big advantage of working backwards is that you can set a timer # minutes prior to the finish time without having to work anything out or even knowing the actual time you are setting it to. All you need to know is the interval or length of time needed to cook, intervals and the length of time to the next alarm are displayed constantly with a graphical progress indicator keeping you up to date. The program is accurate to within +- 100 milliseconds of your PC clock. Up to 60 timers can be set and time spans of 15 minutes to 960 days covers most needs although the program is best suited to tiimings of one day or less. Setting of timers is made even easier by being able to snap to times. Appropriate defaults for selected time spans are applied automatically but anywhere between one second and two weeks can be applied. Zoom levels enable you to expand the view to make visual progress more obvious and one key shortcuts for moving timers by fixed increments make minor adjustments both quick and easy. If something is taking more or less time than anticipated it's a simple matter to move a group of timers forward or backwards. Uses aren't limited to cooking, any situation that requires a number of alarms where a tolerance of +- 100 milliseconds is acceptable can make use of TikTokToDo(tm). Once you've used TikTokToDo(tm) you'll wonder how you ever managed without it. A handy unit converter and a nice big analog clock will become hard to live without tools.
