Alarming Developments In (sleep) Wake-Up Tools

Alarming Developments In Wake-Up Tools Have You Rising On The (Slightly) Happier Side Of Bed - BY KEVIN PURDY

Want to wake up to something besides murderous rage at a blaring klaxon? These alarms use people, podcasts, and science to help you rise without raising your ire.

If you own a smartphone, it's easy to gaze at an old-fashioned, single-purpose alarm clocks and conclude it doesn't do nearly enough. But rely on that phone as your alarm clock, and you're at the mercy of drained batteries, software crashes, and daylight savings time. So what other options exist for a forward-thinking, sleep-loving day worker?
Plenty, it turns out. Specialty alarm apps, social services, and devices that go far beyond the gimmickry of the standard Brookstone selection are waiting for you to give them a try some dreary morning. Here's a few picks from the wide world of waking life.

FYI... I also use an app called Sleep Cycle that operates like the WakeMate but does not use a wrist band but works on the same principles.

Since, I have taken to not enjoying my days at work and I have been quite stressed, I have not been sleeping well. Getting up for work is getting more challenging... I NEED alternatives like these!
Just because someone can call me Mom now doesn't mean I am gonna be Betty Freakin Cocker and bake any pies.

Come up with a device that simulates getting a BJ in the morning as you wake up. That there is a cash cow waiting to happen.
