Mindful combines an event reminder, mini calendar, date calculator and countdown timer in an easy-to-use System Tray application. You can define your own events and/or select from a list of 72 predefined events including many US, Canadian and Jewish holidays. Use Mindful to be reminded of appointments, bill payments, anniversaries and any occasions, recurring or not, that you never want to miss.

Events can be as simple as anniversaries, which occur every year on the same day, or formulated such as a meeting that occurs every 3 months on the last Friday of the month. Mindful supports both simple and formulated events.

The age of a person (or event) can be included in the event description simply by adding the year of birth (or original event year) in square brackets into the event name. For example, if you set the name of an event to “John’s [1967] Birthday”, this item will appear as “John’s 38th Birthday” in the list of events (assuming of course that the current year is 2005 and that John’s birthday has not yet passed in the current year).
