O.P. Google Calendar Countdown?
Hey,

I'm looking for an application that shows me when my next event in Google Calendar is.

This is to help with my university schedule, mainly to remind me how many hours until my morning lecture (so I get some sleep!). :p

Ideally it needs to support multiple calendars and work on Windows 7.

You can get gadgets or widgets, but I don't really want a program (e.g. Google Desktop) which is going to slow down my computer.

There's some Firefox add-ons such as 'Google Calendar Notifier' which says how many events for today in the status bar, but not exactly what I'd like.

Ideally I wish I could have a countdown next to the Windows clock saying "[Image: calendargoogle.png] 5hr 37min" or something. But otherwise maybe just an icon in the system tray would be cool.

Google Calendar 'labs' allows you to add a 'Next Meeting' gadget, but unfortunately doesn't work for multiple calendars and you'd have to be on the website to see it anyway.

If anyone has any ideas, would be great to hear them. :)
