G-Shock

Operating systems offer enough resources and tools by default for comfortable, basic means in any domain of activity. Gadgets were introduced in Windows Vista, enabling an even wider array of tools to keep on the desktop. Multiple such gadget systems got created by different services, and G-Shock aims to place a stylish clock on the desktop for Yahoo! Widget Engine users.
Since it’s not a stand-alone product, the host application, namely Yahoo! Widget Engine must first be installed on the target PC. Coming in a lightweight package, the gadget itself can easily be stored along on a thumb drive along with the entire collection of gadgets to have ready on any other computer.
Just as the name clearly points out, the visual design is a highly-detailed representation of a Casio G-Shock wrist watch. It’s active right from the start, with all indicators moving in real time to provide the exact time directly on the desktop.
Needless to say that it benefits from all default options of a gadget. It can be freely dragged across the desktop to a suitable position, and forced to stay on top of every other window. Additionally, the mouse can be ignored to be able to interact with background objects. Accidental dragging is prevented through a dedicated option, while an opacity slider allows adjustment of transparency.
