Load shedding desktop application

I just had to let everybody know about this cool desktop application I discovered that helps you keep up to date with Eskom’s load shedding schedules. If you are from South Africa, this might just be the thing you were looking for.
The application is very small and sits in your system tray once installed. You can add your location (plus many others) and it will automatically keep track of the scheduled load shedding times for your area directly from the Eskom website.

It will give you notifications and you can even set it up to shut down your pc just before a scheduled downtime.

Thanks to the guys from myenergy.co.za some of us that can’t afford a UPS might be able to get away with it now with this nice application doing the monitoring for us.
Visit their site to download the application, www.myenergy.co.za.
