ok, so to recap, you try to make the calendar a popupapplet?

the browser is dispatched, extender applet, rssnow and nowplaying will be 
soon, yay!
i'm making twitter a popupapplet, with a notification of new tweets in the 
icon (oh, i'll need an icon it turns out :)) as a bonus will be possible to 
show and tweet with a global shortcut (/me loves those nicenessness got for 
free:) 
this should be done by tomorrow and then i can do the dictionary..
or somebody is volunteering? :)

Cheers,
Marco Martin
