So... What is MetaClock?
is a free, web-based Online alarm clock that designed to be convenient. MetaClock is not just
a simple alarm clock, unlike the other online alarm clocks, MetaClcok has lots of widgets you can add to your alarm, and you can customize it to
fit for your needs. MetaClock is Free, and require no registration! Just set your time, add some widgets if you like, and press "Set Alarm"!
I came across the idea of MetaClock a couple of years ago when my phone went dead and I desperately needed an alarm clock for the next morning.
I searched the internet and came across some downloadable applications (which I had no intention to download), and some online alarm clocks.
After almost two hours of searching for a convenient alarm clock, after I blasted my computer with useless applications that did what I needed but only partially, a bunch of websites that didn't function well or just simply didn't match my need (I wanted a nice alarm clock, not a time-based beeping machine!).
The next morning started with an extremely annoying beep that shook the inspiration out of me, as I started to think of my own online alarm clock that will be as convenient as I needed.
The first version of MetaClock was a bit, how to say it gently, "amateur", and it looked like this:
(MetaClock first version, 2008 - not a pretty sight)
After being the sole user of this invention for a month I started to see more traffic to MetaClock, and after not more than 4 months there were 600 people daily on the little page I called MetaClock.
So I decided to take it to an upper level, and make it more user friendly.
I added a facebook group and added new features. At the end, MetaClock was a lot more stylish and neat.
It looked like this:

This one was a shocking success for just an alarm clock, people from all around the world started to use it, as much as 2500 people a day were using MetaClock almost regularly, and MetaClock's MetaClock facebook page was also loaded with comments and posts by users.
So here we are today and the third version of MetaClock is here. All based on users feedbacks, deep thinking and top programming and designing technics.

This would also be the place to thank all of the users for constantly giving feedbacks and opinions, and by that helping me to improve MetaClock over and over all the time.
