I have used Windows Gadget Sidebar and iGoogle gadgets to get things like alarm clocks and stock quote tickers and calendars and currency exchange rates etc. iGoogle has announced they are taking their gadgets away in November and Microsoft has done its best to kill Sidebar. Too much cool gadgets for free never seems to last when there are dollars to be MADE!
Anyone know where I can find sidebar gadgets or something similar today without going to Windows 8 or some other new system?

VueMinder provides a desktop calendar that can sync with Google Calendar. It's not a widget, but it's resizable and has two modes - full and mini. The desktop calendar is very nicely done. Hovering over a date or event provides a popup showing details.
There's a Lite version that's free or a paid version that provides more features. VueMinder can be downloaded here:

It's nice there are some independent software companies out there that provide stuff for free without asking for anything in return. VueMinder is the best calendar you've never heard of and it's a shame more people don't know about it.
