Daniel reviewed a program called Outlook on the desktop two years ago which allowed Windows users to display the Outlook calendar on the system’s desktop where it could be conveniently accessed without having to open Microsoft Outlook.
DeskTask is an alternative to outlook on the desktop. It was back then recommended by Jojo in the comments and a review has since then been on my todo list.
The software program connects to Microsoft Outlook to display the Outlook Calendar and Todo list on the computer desktop. This feature became even more interesting with the release of Windows 7 which provides options to look at the computer desktop without having to minimize the applications.
DeskTask is compatible with all Microsoft operating system from Windows 2000 to Windows 7 and all Microsoft Outlook versions from Outlook 2000 to Outlook 2010 RC.
The program should display the Outlook Calendar and Todo list automatically upon startup. It is possible to move the interface around on the computer desktop so that it can be placed in an appropriate location.
DeskTask display the current’s week calendar sorted by days and the todo list in its interface. The homepage of the developer contains a faq for possible problems or errors that users might experience using the application.
DeskTask is a free software that can be downloaded directly from the developer’s website.
