Mr. Wakeup is a slick little site that actually rings your telephone and gives you a wake-up call. You register online and tell the computer when you want to be called and at what phone number and it really calls you! I tried it at work and it actually rang at the front desk at the time I specified. It's pretty cool! Go to http://www.iping.com.
