Here's a tip if you like using the Mac OS X Stickies app. Open the Terminal, type cal and hit return. This will display a text calendar like this:

     June 2004
 S  M Tu  W Th  F  S
       1  2  3  4  5
 6  7  8  9 10 11 12
13 14 15 16 17 18 19
20 21 22 23 24 25 26
27 28 29 30
Copy and paste that text into a blank Sticky, then change the text to a fixed-width font such as Monaco or Courier, and make any other color or size adjustments as you'd prefer. You'll wind up with something like this.

[robg adds: Yes, it's a simple hint, but I know some of you rely on stickies, and this is a simple way to put the current month's calendar in view.]
