4. In js/settings.js, set this.email to your Google account e-mail address.
5. Set this.key equal to the long key string between private- and /basic in the URI.
6. Deploy the gadget to your Sidebar folder specified in build.bat

See LICENSE for terms.

• All-day events for the next day appear on the current day’s calendar. The strange thing is that the Android Google Calendar widget behaves the same way.
• Events occasionally appear out of order. I can recreate this for reoccurring events that happen every Tuesday: one from 11:45AM-1:25PM, the other from 2:00PM to 5:00PM.
