Overview:

It's a simple hourglass, intented for use with board games. Whenever we play, it is common that everybody gets so excited we forget to watch the timer. Using iHourglass, that won't be a problem. It has a buzzer, and even vibrates if everybody is yelling so the person "watching" the time will feel when time is up. It's very intuitive, turn on its side to pause, flip upside down to reset the clock. (Much better than waiting for half the sand to trickle from one bulb to the other.) I spent awhile getting the animated sand to look good. It's not a countdown timer, there's no text showing the exact seconds left. Just like a real hourglass, you have to look at how much is left in the top, and how fast it's falling out, to figure the time left.
