Topic: IQ Test Alarm Clock

Found this article on a blog today:

In essence, when the alarm is going off, the device makes you complete a logic test in order to turn the alarm off.  This could easily be implemented, and the fact that Chumby already has a touch screen makes it a no-brainer.  Not sure if a stand-alone widget would be able to function like the built-in alarm or if it would actually have to be programmed into the device's core operating system (which the alarm clock seems to be a part of?).

I'm hoping that someone out there with the know-how to run with this idea notices the post, or at the very least it generates some discussion.

There is already a mechanism to create custom alarm ring screens.  Documentation here with links to example code.
