Ask HN: Would you buy a Pomodoro/personal timer that connects to your PC/device?

Hello HN,

I am a fan and practitioner of interval work / the Pomodoro technique. I have used various programs and physical timers that help with this, but I have never seen the two work together. I'm thinking about building a timer that can connect to your computer and/or phone but wanted to see if others think this would be useful. Would you consider buying such a thing? If so what features would you want?

No. I've a small computer in my hand which is highly programable and very likely there are several apps in the store for such functionality. Having to carry a special hardware doesn't sound enticing.
