Why use GeekAlarm!?
Q: I don't feel bad, why should I use GeekAlarm!?
A: You might not feel bad but wouldn't you like to feel better? Wouldn't it be great if you had more energy, increased productivity, less fatigue, and less eye strain? GeekAlarm! reminds you when you should take breaks so you don't have to think about it. When you take breaks you are able to relax. You feel less stressed out and are able to get more work done. In fact, the day may seem to go by much faster.
Q: New research shows 'eThrombosis' Blood Clot Risk, how can GeekAlarm! help?
A: Sitting in front of your computer for long hours could be a risk of blood clots. By using GeekAlarm! you are reminded at set intervals to get up and move around. While using GeekAlarm! you will no longer sit at your computer for hours on end without realizing how much time has gone by. GeekAlarm! will remind you to take breaks every 30, 45, or 60 minutes.
Q: Ugh, I feel bad all the time, have low energy, my eyes are strained, and my productivity suffers from it. What can GeekAlarm! do for me?
A: If you have Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI), Carpel Tunnel Syndrome (CTS), or Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS), GeekAlarm! can help.
If you suffer from Fatigue, Bad Posture, Muscle Tension or Anxiety/Depression, GeekAlarm! can help (note: if symptoms persist you should consult a doctor).
If you’re like most people; you sit down at your computer in the morning and don’t move around much during the day. According to Alan Hedge, professor of design and environmental analysis at Cornell and director of Cornell's Human Factors and Ergonomics Laboratory, We found that alerting computer users to take short rests and breaks improved work accuracy without any reductions in overall keystroke and mouse use.
