This has been done before back in the day, but it kind of failed.  Try again...

So I have seen a bunch of threads in the last few weeks asking for desktop stuff, and I though we could all find features we want if we have a ton of different desktops to check out.  Mine is pretty simple, just a rocket dock with Icalendar lite.  Basically I love the Mac layout, but I need XP for work.  Looks like this normally:

I also have the stack docklet on it so that my files just pop up (that is my pictures on the screen).  You can change it to fan out and stuff too, but mine just pops up in a box:

Post up yours!  I have a tablet PC, so I was hoping to find something that I could put on the desktop that I could handwrite quick notes on.  I know there are post-it applications, but I haven't been able to find one.  Maybe there is something similar.

This is an awesome thread. I've never gone through it before. I'd never heard of the dock either, but I'm pumped that I have it now. Some people have some rad desktops, and I found myself a couple times trying to double click some programs that looked cool. haha.

But here's mine. It's my brother, my dad, and I, back in 1990. I was 4, my brother was 2. My dad just sent the pictures to me the other day, and I thought it was rad.

Shit, sorry for the double post, but I forgot to ask:

What are some apps for the desktop calendars or weather bugs that people use?
I"m running XP.
