Fancy clocks for the Windows Sidebar not only come with Windows Vista, they come in all shapes and sizes- from outlandish to utterly zen.

Why not grab the most useful one there is?

Enter the Sphere Timer.

It’s a digital clock with an alarm, a countdown function, a lap timer, and more. You can use it as a stopwatch, a reminder, and a tool to show off to your friends that you while away the hours in military time (but AM/PM is also available). A small and good-looking gadget, it’s the damn best clock for the Sidebar thus far.
