always have the date to hand
pixelfinity (10 points) | Tue, 2006-07-11 22:47Here's a quick way to stop people asking what the date is...!
you can always have the date showing using the ical icon in the doc - notice how it says July 17th until you launch the app (sorry if you are reading this on July 17th - it must be very confusing)
step 1 - open system prefs
step 2 - click accounts
step 3 - select the user and go to the login items tab
step 4 - drag the ical icon from your application folder into 'these items' window.
step 5 - (optional) check the hide box, this will launch the app on startup and then hide it from view.
conclusion: iCal will always be launched and todays date will be in the dock.

with this neat bit of software i can have the iCal logo (with the correct date showing) sat between spotlight an the time in the menu bar, added bonus of a small drop-down calendar in the menu bar with full iCal (or Entourage) integration.
i highly recommend giving it a try
Don't buy my quality Elvis or
Hendrix pop art prints!
That's a great little program that makes events quickly accessible from iCal.
