chrisgeleven Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 (edited) http://desktop.google.com/ Some new things I have noticed: * Google Maps is now available as a panel * There is a calendar panel plugin (just shows the month, you can't add events or anything like that). * There is now an alerts toaster, which will flash up news that might interest you and e-mails at random times it appears. Edit: Fixed typo and added more info on calendar.

chrisgeleven Posted November 4, 2005 Author Share Posted November 4, 2005 Calender??! 586764485[/snapback] Just shows a calendar, you can't add events or anything (yet). Of course, if they ever release Google Calendar, they have the perfect way to access it via the sidebar.
