PopUpDoro - A Pomodoro Notifier

DESCRIPTION

This program uses libnotify to provide you with alerts for using the 
Pomodoro technique for time management.  The benefit of using this notifier 
system is that the alerts fit in nicely with the system, as they look like 
part of the OS.

The intent of this program was to create an unobtrusive notification system
for use with the Pomodoro Technique.  I was not satisfied with the solutions
I had seen, and when I found out about libnotify (through a post using it for
Pomodoro), I thought it to be what I was looking for.  A few improvements
later, I had something I actually wanted to use.

Again, I can't take credit for the original idea.  You can find the original 
script and the blog post it came from here:
