Active Desktop Calendar Review
2009 Active Desktop Calendar Review
If you’re looking for a desktop calendar program that you can use with Microsoft Outlook, Active Desktop Calendar is the program for you. Because you can only create desktop calendars, this program may seem limited to those who want to print out their calendar or add images to create something more personalized. Active Desktop Calendar is compatible with Micro Outlook and can be used with Windows Vista, so you can use the images provided on your desktop to decorate your calendar. Features of Active Desktop Calendar Because Active Desktop Calendar is meant to be more of a time management tool than a decorative accent for your computer, you will notice that there aren’t as many features compared to more sophisticated programs. Basic features include:
- Time management tools such as alarms, personal and public reminders, and the ability to add notes and other text to daily entries
- Compatible with LAN networks if you want to share your calendar with others
- Ability to choose font and color options
For those who are looking for a basic time management tool that can be used on a daily basis and be seen by others, Active Desktop Calendar is perfect. It is very easy to use and is available in two or three month blocks. You can easily upload it to your computer and begin using it right away. The program comes with a default image that will be displayed unless you disable it. You can change the default image to another image by selecting on that’s on your desktop. Change your image as often as you like. Installation and Ease of Use This program is very easy to install on most computers. If you have any operating issues, you can search the website of Xemicomputer, the company who created the program, for helpful pages and FAQ. Once you install the program, it will begin running and will always be on. This means that whenever you turn your computer on, the program will automatically run. This can save you the time of having to activate it anytime you want to view it. Making changes to the calendar can be done by right clicking the day twice. Active Desktop Calendar is helpful for those who need to be reminded of daily meetings and other events. The calendar itself is simplistic, but for those who aren’t looking for a decorative or personalized calendar for their computer, this program is perfect.
