Alarm Clock displays time, date and your reason for waking up. This is especially useful if waking at a time earlier than normal - you are reminded why the alarm is set early. Consequently, you are more likely to remain awake instead of re-setting the alarm to your normal waking time.

Actually it would be more fun if the clock actually determined your reason for getting up.
Say, on Monday it says; "Get your ass out of bed, because it will annoy the hell out of the guy in the next cubicle." |

a visual reminder in the morning would not be effective like an audible reminder that you prerecord the night before would be. |
|
| |
simply record your message, i.e. "job interview this morning, get up!" and sleep easy knowing that you will be reminded by no. 1 about your important events. |

If we're going for audio, that's baked--I have a clock-radio I can set on "tape" setting, so it'll play the cassette when it activates. All I have to do is set it to do so. |

I like the idea of writing on principle, but I fear it wouldn't work for me--I'm dreadfully nearsighted, and so wouldn't be able to read it until I was awake enough to find my spectacles, anyhow. |

Hmm, what about losers like me who never have anything exciting happen to them in the moring? All my messages would be like: "Get up, you have another boring class." |

My phone (Nokia 8387218649063621089 or something) has a reminder function to set an alarm for a date/time with a written message - i.e. appointment at sexual health clinic, weep over state of the world today, have a sandwich! etc). |
