Google Calendar Dashboard Widget Updated to version 2.0

This long-pending update to my Google Calendar Dashboard Widget is now finally ready!
Changes in Version 2.0
- There were some problems handling time-zones in version 1.0 for some users. These issues have been (hopefully!) fixed in version 2.0.
- A highly-requested feature was to be able to look-ahead several days into the future, not just today and tomorrow’s events. Version 2.0 lets you preview up to one week ahead of today.
- The top part of the widget now features a button that takes you to Google Calendar in a browser. Trivial, yet highly useful, feature.
Download this free update if you’re using version 1.0. And keep the comments flowing in!

I would love to be able to add an event from the widget.

I just downloaded 2.0. The timezones still seem to be incorrect. They work fine in Google Calendar itself.
However, this thing is still pretty useful. Thanks!

The timezones still seem to be broken.. An appointment for tonight at 11pm shows up as tomorrow at 8am.

Just wanted to say thanks – this is a great widget. I tried a different one, too, but yours had a feature the other didn’t – a click takes you to your calendar. Seems obvious, but I guess not. Thanks for thinking it through!
