Well, this morning after reading this I threw together a script in 5 secs to do this for me. I'm using OS X and like everyone this means I have Growl installed for various applications. I figured that it should be easy enough to announce my times using that. Looked around, found the commandline tool growlnotify and 5 seconds later... #!/bin/sh while true; do sleep $((30*60)) growlnotify -swn Timer -m Playtime! Timer sleep $((30*60)) growlnotify -swn Timer -m Worktime! Timer done ...was born.
