    Desktop Clock

    I see a lot of people post up their desktop wallpapers here, and some have a clock and calendar on their desktop. What program is do you use? I'd like to find something like that, it looks nice.

    Active Desktop. It's basically using a html document as your wallpaper to display images and elements.

    Nice link, that's better than tarting around with Active Desktop, I've just installed it and it's a nice little app.

    http://www.rainlendar.net/cms/index.php for download link, the Lite version is free and has pretty much full functionality unless you want to network events and such.

    There is a couple I know of, I like Windows Sidebar the most though. It's not just for Vista...

    (yes, I know the comp is horrible... if you have any questions on how I do anything on it feel free to PM. I'm quite happy with the what I can get to run on it.)

    There is also this:

    It is ok too, though not as pretty imo.

    I use rainlendar and rainmeter for mine personally but that desktop sidebar thing doesn't look to bad. I'm still a bit dubious about things that connect to the internet and tell me the weather and such though. Had an incident with an AIM update and weather bug once that did that... still refuse to install AIM after that experience ; ;
