While I'm trying to come back from being a hermit, thought I'd share this. Recently I installed some freeware I'm enjoying that makes my computer chime the quarters and ring the hours like a grandfather clock:
DS Clock from DualitySoft
What it's actually made for is to display a simple text-clock, which is "always on top" by default, but you can turn that off. It also synchronizes with some kind of calendar/to-do list software they make and displays a tooltip from that, but I've never used the other thing and you can turn that feature off, too, so I'm just left with a simple, unobtrusive clock in a corner of my desktop.
And my virtual Westminster chimes. You can easily set them to only chime during certain (waking) hours. The sound quality on them is a bit grainy, but I'm enjoying them.
I've also gotten very nice comments on things I made for Yuletide now, so I'm happy. ^__^
