About Online Alarm Clocks

One of the great essentials in life is a trusty alarm clock. Without it, waking up on time from a nap or a night of sleep is nearly impossible. There are several online alarm clocks that can do the job, and most of them are free.

Most standard alarm clocks have very few features, and most of those features cannot be customized or changed. One of the greatest features of online alarm clocks is that they have many more features than you would ever be able to have on a standard clock. Some of these features include:



  • Alarm sounds - Many sites allow you to choose from a multitude of sounds. Some sites even have YouTube capability, allowing you to wake up to your favorite video.

  • Visible alarm - Online alarm clocks can also display messages or reminders on your monitor.

  • Custom skins - The "skin" is simply a different way to view the alarm clock. There are several types of skins to choose from, so that your clock reflects your personality.


To find an online alarm clock, type "online alarm clock" in the search box of any search engine. You will find a multitude of sites that offer free alarm clocks. Look at several of them and choose the one that has features that work best for you.


Online alarm clocks are not perfect. If your monitor switches to a screen saver, your alarm will probably not go off. Make sure that your screen saver is off and that any energy saving programs are turned off as well. Also, online alarm clocks are not recommended for those who have spotty internet connections.
