Nag@Me - very simple reminder application
« on: February 06, 2009, 11:15 PM »
I just whipped up this tiny program for my dad, and figured it might help someone else out as well. Nag@Me is a very simple reminder program - you run it, tell it how often you want it to nag you, and what you want it to say. Hit OK and its off. To close the app, single-click the tray icon and hit the Cancel button.

Requires .NET 3.0+, Windows 2k or above

Screenshots:

Nag notification:

Tray icon (single click to restore Setup GUI):

Program info:

Hope someone finds it useful! :)

You probably should have searched DC before reinventing the wheel:

PesterMe

And no .NET needed!

I looked through the Downloads section and did a quick forum skim to no avail, but I figured it would give me a much needed refresh anyways, so I didn't look too hard. It can't hurt to learn :)

I like the additional time customization that this has (over PesterMe).
Downloaded and liked!

Thanks!

I'm going to work on that soon; my dad brought up the same complaint. It's on my list :)

Alright, as requested, I added in the ability to automatically save whatever text is in the program when it closes. No additional options, just type, close and reopen to test for yourself :)

Enjoy!

Thanks, glad you like it! :D

I don't usually make individual web pages for my apps, but I have uploaded it to my website - I *might* add pages for individual programs, though (if so, this one will be first). :undecided:

If you've uploaded to your website, take my advice: do NOT attach programs to posts. Link them directly to you site, or each time you update the program you'll have to update all the posts (or the link on the top post, like you did).
Having a link for the direct download on the first post will also get more people to download it ;)

Yes, it is on the site - top post changed to link at website

I didn't think it would get much attention at all, so I didn't really think about it :P
