Anyone that is using any version of Windows, I highly recommend going to http://www.dqsd.net/ and getting Dave's Quick Search Deskbar. It was originally designed to be a little google search box that shows up in your taskbar, but there are actually dozens of very useful things that it does. For one thing, it shows a clock when you're not typing in it, and it can show the full day of the week, date, and time (or not, depending on how big you make it) so you can disable the normal Windows taskbar clock. And if you right-click it, it pops up a full calendar-widget-thing. And you can also use it as a mini-command line of sorts. Really, just get it and play around with it and you'll be happier for it.
