Speaking Clock Deluxe

Diddy speaks! This interlude by Combs now has another meaning. “Diddy” could become a good nickname for your desktop clock, if only you would like to install the program called Speaking Clock Deluxe on your PC.
What about deluxe? In my opinion, the program isn’t as deluxe, as fun. It’s really funny to hear a clever man’s serious voice, pronouncing the exact time! Such announcements are the main advantage of the program, but you would be surely glad to discover, that, besides, it has such features as calculator, alarm, timer and stopwatch and other more or less useful options. I’ve seen at least ten different versions of desktop watches, but this one is the best. Really, they are simple in usage, convenient and nice, though the voice, pronouncing the time, is a bit scary. The only disadvantage is in its interface. It seems to me that it’s too simple for such a great piece of software. Speaking Clock Deluxe requires Windows 95 or higher, and the program, at least its unregistered, free version, is worth launching on your PC!

Speaking alarm clock which can announce the time in many different languages. English, French, German, Spanish and Russian are included, over 30 other languages can be freely downloaded. Also features MS Agent and text-to-speech support, which makes it possible to have animated characters that announce the time and pops up when the alarm goes off. The multiple alarm system keeps track of up to 50 different alarms, with the possibility of announcing the time, playing any wave file or even starting another program. The alarms can be set to go off once or be repeated daily, weekly, monthly or yearly. In addition it also features a speaking calculator, a timer/stopwatch function, time synchronization with sync schedules, choice of digital or analog displays and a very attractive all-graphical interface design. The clock runs in the system tray (where it also shows the time). The perfect desktop companion that adds a touch of personality to your computer system.
