Believe it or not, webapps can do more than just let you play games! For example, you can use your computer as an alarm clock using the unfortunately-initialed KuKu Klok. It’s a rather simple but somehow entertaining little webapp – you set a time for an alarm to go off, you choose a sound to wake up to, and you hit “Set Alarm.” One advantage it has over Online Alarm Clock is that is that it’s Flash-based and goes off even if your internet connection cuts out.

Honestly I don’t know how/when you’ll ever need it, but any webapp that has “Slayer Guitar” in its preferences deserves a mention. Of course, maybe more fun is the pseudo-functional Sleep Blaster where you can yell at your Mac to turn of the alarm. Now if only that worked for the car alarms outside my office that are set off by low-altitude F-16 flybys.
