Many years ago I created a social alarm clock idea which was panned and hated.. lol. Though at the time I had no tech skills and never released our prototype.
Personally being woken up to something funny, cute, meaningful from a friend or loved one was great. Though the challenge for this idea to work is you have to put restraints via audio volume levels to ensure a great experience (waking up laughing or with a smile or another positive emotion) happens on each use. Also know the likes of each user and what's happening in their life.
I still believe it's a great idea/new form of communication that if done correctly the masses would love, as when it wakes you up to something you connect with you smile and or laugh; changing your morning routine for the better! I wish Apple would allow a user the ability to wake up to a radio URL!!!
- a_c_s 10y agoInteresting idea, partly because it is the total opposite of what I want in an alarm clock: everyone's different! As a heavy sleeper I'm always groggy and not social when I get up. My perfect alarm clock would have a loud, blaring alarm (imagine what a movie alarm would sound like to indicate nuclear war or some other form of certain doom). I think I'd either be annoyed by or sleep through something cute like laughter.
