So now that we have the calender, I was thinking we could make use of it as an extended alarm clock. This would be useful for fleets and other things you need to get done.

Use:

Open calender.
Select or Create an event.
Click a new button that says "Set Alarm"
????
PROFIT!

After you set the new event, a red timer would appear between your undock and time of day. It's represented in a set of two digits with letter designation (day = d, hour = h, minute = m, second = s), and two more digits with the same. So if you have several days on the timer, you'll see something like 16d09h. Sixteen days and nine hours. If you only have a few minutes left, you'll see the letters change: 15m52s

Once the timer finishes, you'll get a popup on your screen and a little audio blip. Perhaps something like the shield/hull/armor alarms.

Thoughts?

Would be really cool to be able to tie it in with API and use it in a ap for a smartphone or on your pc to use as an actual alarm whether you're in eve or not. Je suis le commencement de votre fin. Le diable prend soin de son proper.
