We hope everyone had a great holiday season and enjoyed exchanging gifts with loved ones. The lucky ones among us may have been bestowed a 2009 wall calendar for the new year.
If not, don’t feel bad — you can always use the brand new Calendar gadget to keep track of your Google Calendar events. This new gadget works on the Linux, Windows, and Mac versions of Desktop gadgets, and it supports all Google Accounts, including Google Apps accounts. Check out the official announcement on the Gmail blog.
The Calendar gadget doesn’t come with scenic shots of exotic locations, but it does have a day view mode so you can see what day it is at a glance.
Please try it out and let us know what you think.
Happy new year from the Google Desktop team!
