VueMinder Lite

This is a calendar and a reminder program.

VueMinder Lite is a calendar and reminder program. It is compatible with Google calendar and can be synchronized with it easily. The tool/utility will let you monitor the progress of the tasks you have set for yourself. This can be supported whether you are on-line or off-line. The tool will also provide data back-up automatically. There will, thus, never be any potential loss of your Google Calendar events. Events can be displayed on the Windows desktop, where as a transparent desktop calendar it adds to the desktop aesthetics. The available calendar browser lets you add more calendars to the main one. These could be holidays, local weather, sport schedules, religious occasions, and so on. You could have your own calendars too. Each of these could be viewed as a day view, a week view or a month view.

Event categories can be colored based on the associated calendar, category, priority or location. You could easily subscribe to the ICS calendar and import/ export ICS data. Print features support multiple layouts. You could be sure of what you will get in the printed form, through the preview window. The reminder/alerts will be in the form of popup windows or unobtrusive desktop alerts. These reminder events can have associated media files that could be played or a text to speech module can actually read out the text associated with the alert. The interface is built on the styles of the Outlook. If you are or were a Outlook user, getting used to this tool should not take any time at all. This one is a good tool for daily use, if you do not have some calendar arrangement already.

VueMinder Lite is a FREE calendar and reminder program. If you're looking for the perfect offline PC-based companion to Google Calendar, you've found it in VueMinder, which supports automatic synchronization with Google Calendar and can show your schedule regardless of whether you happen to be online or offline. Data is also backed up automatically, protecting you against the potential loss of your Google Calendar events.
A calendar browser allows addition of many calendars, such as holidays, local weather, sport schedules, religious occasions, and more. You can also create your own calendars, which are overlaid into day, week, and month views. Events can be filtered or color-coded based on associated calendar, category, priority, or location. Calendars can also be printed using a wide variety of templates and settings.
ICS calendar subscriptions are fully supported, along with the ability to import or export ICS files. Calendars can be saved as web pages (HTML) for publication to your website or sharing with others. Files can be linked to events and opened using just 2 clicks of the mouse. Print features are also provided, with a number of layout styles and a preview window that dynamically refreshes to show exactly what will be printed.
VueMinder truly shines in the way it presents reminders, which can be either popup windows or unobtrusive desktop alerts. Reminders can be configured to play media files or even recite text-to-speech descriptions. If your computer speakers are turned up, you'll be able to hear the details of your reminder from another room - no more wondering what the computer is beeping about.
If you're familiar with Microsoft Outlook, VueMinder will feel instantly familiar. Even if you've never used Outlook, VueMinder is very intuitive and easy to learn, with many convenient touches, such as the ability to undo accidental reminder dismissal.
