Last week we were trying to count down to Happy Hour, and quickly realized that there were no good countdown tools that were both well designed and easy to share. So we spent a few hours each evening designing and building itsAlmo.st

It’s pretty simple: just give your countdown a name and a time, and let it begin. Every countdown has it’s own spiffy URL for as long as it’s running (like http://itsalmo.st/#HappyHour), so you can share it with friends and post it to Facebook or Twitter.

We hope you get a kick out of this little utility and find it as handy as we do.
