This is the way the computer desktop ought to be, free of overzealous clutter, so that I might actually get some work done...in between customizing my theme.

The calender can be next on my list, along with a Tomboy tasks list (which is proving to be more trouble than its worth). I hope to make this a viable alternative to screenlets, especially for those that arn't using a composite manager ie. compiz.
Thanks for all the support, the ideas are really moving this thing forward.

Added the wireless signal monitor that you asked for, fairly simple but it does the trick (see third screenshot).
Thanks for posting the pic, great to see it all on another desktop.

I had hoped that fixing the inbox issue would be easier. Usually I would get you to go to your Yahoo mail options and under POP3/forwarding you would be able to delete messages off the server once they had been sent to your email client. Therefore the conky-email would only read messages not yet accessed by your email client (new ones). Unfortunately Yahoo! doesn't offer this service without upgrading to Yahoo! Mail Plus. Gmail does offer this for free.
Alternatively you can periodically delete the messages that you have read off of your account manually, although i do realize how annoying this would be. There is not much i can do in terms of the conky-email script.

Here it is:
${execi 600 conkyEmail --servertype=POP --servername=pop.mail.yahoo.com --username=your username --password=your password --ssl}
Also I understand the reason u hav entended the width of the rss conky, but i believe that this will conflict with .conkyrc4, which provides for the box and firefox symbol (they are separate for formatting reasons).
Give 0.3 a go and hopefully it works out for ya. Also could u please let me know if the battery meter now works as i have made changes.
Thanks for all the feedback! - Feb 12 2009

Do you think i should package the conkys together or separately? That way people can pick and choose what they want. - Feb 12 2009

The RSS feed is a great idea. The only problem I see is tryn to format a large amount of text so that it looks stylish on the desktop (which is the problem for conky in general). Im also working on a Tomboy based tasks list.
