Title: Egg Watchers: Egg Timer 2.0
Post by: Clive on January 28, 2010, 20:45

A cute little web interface serves you a YouTube video based on how done you want your boiled egg, its size, and whether it's just out of the fridge. The length of the video is the length of the boil. No more watched pots!

A timer is so much simpler...

I'm not convinced about 6 minutes for a large egg either.  I reckon it would be hard boiled not squidgy as they claim.   :dunno:

They told me 7 and a half minutes for a large hard boiled. :dunno:

Strangely, last night it told me 6 mins 40 seconds.  It's coming round to my way of thinking.   ;D

Or, it depends which YouTube video it picks?

No, because it gives the time before the video...
