veenix.blogspot.com— Nature didn't intend for you to jump out of bed at the sound of a buzzer. This article gives a simple and free (as in beer) system to waking up more naturally that will have you feeling better.

I for sure will be trying this soon... ive felt sleep deprived lately, and this seems just the thing to help me out... only thing is, i can only have one volume on my alarm, as far as i can tell, so it'll take a little extra to have a "quiet" and "loud" alarm... +1 digg
@nariposa - I work at my computer. 10-12 hours per day. Nerd baiting is a good distraction from what goes on in the real world ... but, at the end of the day, I turn my computer off, and sleep in an entirely different room. Once you move out of the basement, you might be able to appreciate that.
@TokenUserThen thank you for taking more time out of your Real Life™ to teach me that having one means throwing 60 hours a week at being a better wage slave. Maybe one day, if I wish hard enough, I can be a lonely programmer too!
I tried this tonight after reading this article since I can never wake up on time for class.It actually worked.Set the alarm to 6:00am playing some mellow music, woke up around 6:30 feeling great! - I hope this is my answer to sleep problem!
I've tried this for two days and even though I still hate waking up in the morning I feel great all day! This is my method:4:00am: a really low volume Jazz station4:30am loud buzzersnooze till 5am but Im no longer in a deep sleep and Im only getting about 6 hours of sleep. Before this method I was tired and yawning all day.Dude, this really works. All you skeptics, give it a try! It can't hurt. Besides, you have to have to wake up anyway right?~mario
I gonna give it a try this night, i can only wake up if i tune my radio to a mid-station place, where u get all the noise, and let me tell you sometimes i wake up in a panic just because of the damn alarm clock! ZZZrrIzzRii= !_!

@ TokenUserHow often do you take time off from your Real Life? to engage in baiting-for-sport on nerd blogs?

<a class="user" href="http://www.geocities.com/vinodtandon/cac/">http://www.geocities.com/vinodtandon/cac/</a>College Alarm Clock - been using this for a while now doing the same thing... 'cept 45 minutes after this goes off, 3 other clocks around the room blast me, one of which is an X-10 controller that turns on all my lights too. :-)

I use the Snoozester.com to wake me up. I love the characters.
