If you are sick to death of being berated and browbeaten for your inability to manage time better, here’s some places where you can find some pretty nifty clocks and software and other goodies.

Don’t let the fact that they’re ADD sites disturb you. Some folks who don’t have ADD are chronically late/disorganized - and these gizmos are mighty cool.

I know the ladies who developed [this one](http://www.addplanner.com/index2.html) and saw the demos. It’s pretty darn awesome IMHO. You can set a series of voice reminders to go off at different intervals prior to your leaving, so one can say ‘time to get your lunch ready’ and then another ‘time to get dressed’ and one of the developers had set her last one to say something like ‘get out of here now’. 😃

Cool! I am chronically forgetting my keys _ **after** _ I’ve locked up and left the house. And am late quite often for things… Then again my unmedicated ADD is not a crutch…no not a crutch 🙂

Nice sites…

Oo, neat, this one works with a PDA. I wish they had some screenshots showing how it integrates into the Palm’s calendar, but it looks cool otherwise.

I have a system for my pills. Put them by the coffee filters, so I take them when I make coffee each morning.  
The coffee itself is fairly disorganized though. I have often wondered why it’s taking so long and then realize I’ve forgotten the water or to turn it on.
