About
Owl Reminder can connect your Google Calendar and provide desktop notification for events. Compared with existing solutions it has several advantages: 1. Instant push notification while most other solutions use infrequent polling which can have long delay. 2. Caches events offline so reminder still works even if there is no internet connection. 3. A simple to-do list kind of UI with snooze and dismiss buttons. People can use it as simple task management tool. 4.
