E.gg Timer is a crazy simple concept.
You go to the site, type in a specific amount of time, and a timer goes off alerting you that time is up.
For me, it's great for things like baking while Finn is taking a nap {also when I do most of my blog reading}, I don't have to set the loud incessant oven timer. Or if I have laundry, I can set the timer for when the dryer should go off and know it is time to switch a load.
It's great for using your time wisely online too. You want to spend 15 minutes catching up on blogs? Set the timer. You want to check your email and not get wrapped into sitting there for an hour? Set the timer. You're not watching the clock, you're getting done what you need to get done in the time that you pre-determine.
It interrupts what you're doing by beeping twice and popping up the timer screen when time is up.
You can use it to monitor your kids' online time as well. If you give them thirty minutes online, set the timer.

I haven't used it in a while, but it is fantastic and it does give you a swift reminder to stay on track! :)
