And it sounds just like my nexus 7 timer.

Google - it's the little things.

Real cool, it's actually useful when you query it like this: "timer 16:40". Way to go Google.
It does not work for me :( I see nothing special
Are you using it on google.com or some other domain ?

I think it works only on .com and in chrome.

It works on Firefox (using the Nightly build 25.0a1).
No worky worky on mobile Safari either.
Nice, timers are always handy. Some things I noticed:

* Shortcuts: hr min sec

* Supports countdown or clock: timer 10 sec, timer 14:00

* Clock mode supports am/pm and 24hr format: timer 2pm

* Set a bookmark for a 10 second timer: https://www.google.com/search?q=timer+10+sec

* Timer stops beeping after about 30 seconds

* If you try to close or navigate away from the page while a timer is active, you will be warned that timer will be stopped

It kind of screws with my timezone. It's 5:50pm and if I query for "timer 6pm" it'll set up a timer for 2 hours and 10 minutes instead of just 6 minutes. Does anyone experience this? Is there a way to set my timezone?
