The sample Date & Time module for the Google Personalized Homepage is pretty, but it takes up a lot of room. My mom (hi mom!) wanted something that was a bit more compact, with an always visible calendar, and the ability to view months in the past/future. I've whipped up a modified version of the original module that does this. It's also available at the excellent (unofficial) Google Modules site.

To install it:

• Visit your Personalized Homepage
• Click the "Add Content" link in the upper-left corner
• Type in the URL http://persistent.info/modules/datetime.xml in the "Create a Section" form and press "Go"
