Get your courtesy wake-up call via the web

If you're like me, you simply don't trust the morons down at the front desk to really come through with that wake-up call when you need it most. And God only knows if that bedside clock on your nightstand is going to do any better.

Well, now there is a web-based service to help you out.

Simply visit Wakerupper.com and plug in the time and date you'd like a wake-up call and the site automatically calls the telephone number of your choice at the appropriate time. Or, since the site allows users to type in a brief text message that will be converted to voice when you pick up your call, you can use it as daytime alarm to be reminded of certain deadlines.

Now, if only they could get it to work internationally....
