Based on comments in this thread, if you guys are interested in a simpler multi-step timer with audio alerts, I can probably whip something up in Java.

Alright, that single post has enough enthusiasm for me to start working on a simple version. Don't expect results before the end of the weekend.

Slacker....
I like the look of yours better already, simple and straightforward. The ability to choose alarm sounds might be nice, if possible.
Can you make it email or text message me instead of beeping.
Can you make it each section change color and stay that way? I was a little druck last night doing hop additions and I lost track of where I was.
Maybe. If I add this feature, I'll probably force you to use a Gmail account (one that you own) as the "from" source.Can you make it email or text message me instead of beeping.
Please keep the feature suggestions coming...but don't be upset if I don't include them. I'm trying to keep this little guy VERY simple.
I'm thinking of embedding a small default alarm sound (pretty sure Java allows that) and using a file chooser dialog to let the user pick a custom sound. I'm not going to store any data unless I find a way to use cookies as a means of "remembering" defaults, so you'll have to choose the custom sound again each time the app runs.It could be as simple as storing the sound as an external wav file, so the user could swap it out.
Yes, via colors, check marks, and/or enabling/disabling components.

I'll think about it. Remember, I'm keeping it very simple.

Can you make it say "time for Simcoe" "time for Amarillo"etc
Right now it functions as a stopwatch. The alerts do nothing. If you have trouble running the .jar file (the only file included in the .zip archive), try "java -jar simpleTimer.jar" from a command line. If that doesn't work, you probably need to install a runtime environment (JRE).
It did not stop at 0, but continued into negative seconds.
Thanks!
Wow. That does look much less seizure causing.
