Outlook on the Desktop 1.4.4

Saturday, June 28th, 2008 |

Have you ever wondered why it’s such a pain in the butt to use calendaring programs on your computer? It’s simple: they don’t mimic their real life counterparts very well. People who use calendars to organize their daily lives have them visible in plain sight nearly all of the time. Yet, on the computer, you have to go through a myriad of windows and clicks before you can even see your calendar. So to bridge the gap,

Outlook on the Desktop is a program that will place the Microsoft Outlook Calendaring system right on your desktop. The calendar object gets pinned to your desktop and stays there all the time in plain sight so you can always see what’s upcoming. Of course, the benefits don’t stop there … because it’s the actual Microsoft Outlook calendar, you get all it’s functionality, such as direct editing, drag and drop of files, etc. You have to see it to believe it.

Requirements: Windows 2000 or higher, Microsoft Outlook 2000 SR-1 or higher, Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0
