BYTES: ONE DAY AT A TIME

With all the free advice out there, do we really need our screen savers putting their two cents in? Sure, why not, especially if it's a Day-Savor Screen-A-Day-Calendar from KaizenWorks Publishing. Combining the $30 million"one-page-per-day" calendar business with the current motivational craze and some hip humor, KaizenWorks has created a screen saver line that displays a different image and message each day, be it astrology, trivia, jokes, and now 365 Daily Servings of Chicken Soup for the Soul.

MILLENNIUM WATCH...

To track the countdown to the year 2000, KaizenWorks Publishing has created the "Millennium 2000 Countdown Day-Savor" cyber-calendar. A computer countdown clock shows the exact number of days, hours, minutes and seconds remaining until the new millennium. The software also includes 500 facts and quotes about this historic event, as well as full-screen images, music, political issues, religious beliefs, scientific data and humorous musings.

IMPROVE THE VIEW AT WORK

Upgrade the view from your desk with Day-Savor screen-savers, a disk that lets you install a year's worth of images that appear on-screen while your computer is "sleeping."

SANTA'S GRAB BAG

A FEW LAST-MINUTE CALENDARS ­­ AND SIDELINE SUGGESTIONS FOR THE SPRING

Just when you thought ­­ or hoped ­­ that calendar season was coming to a close, KaizenWorks of Santa Monica, Calif., has created Day-Savor Screen-A-Day Calendar, the cyber cousin to the ubiquitous page-per-day desktop calendar. Day-Savor, which can be sold as fresh goods any time of year because it is perpetual, automatically greets you each day with a new message, accompanied by themed full-screen images, music and, of course, the date. The daily image and statement can also be printed out (in letter or greeting-card format), faxed or e-mailed along with a personal note to friends or associates. Day-Savor can be customized by changing font colors, sizes and styles or by adding your own picture, messages and music. Included in the software is a mini-calendar manager for appointments and reminders. Another notable feature is the Mini-Note function, in which the daily message is displayed in the corner of the screen for continued viewing.

Day-Savor messages and images tend toward the inspirational, motivational or educational. The company now offers nine titles, which include Golfer's Daily: 365 Quotes, Quips & Tips; Sixty-Second Smart: 365 Days of fun, Facts & Trivia; Worth Repeating: 365 famous Quotes to Inspire You Each Day; Winning: 365 Motivational Business Quotes; Astrology 1997/1998: 365 Daily Horoscopes for Every Sign; and Diet-Free Forever: 365 Tips for Staying Lean & Healthy. Others cover biblical and spiritual topics. The line has won four awards in the 1997 World Calendar Awards and the National Calendar Awards competitions. Day-Savor comes as a 3.5 inch diskette niftily packaged with the gift market in mind.

 DAILY, BUT NOT ROUTINE

Last year when you turned on your computer after installing Day-Savor, an electronic version of the popular page-per-day calendar, what you got amounted to no more than sweet little somethings for the screen.

The program, like the actual calendar that resides on many desks, previously provided daily inspiration, tidbits and encouragement on your virtual desktop.

The series of PC cyber calendars, unleashed for the first time on CD-ROM, now offers a lot more.

For one, there's a lot more variety, including Diet-Free Forever (365 tips for staying lean and healthy), That's Funny! (365 lines from your favorite comedians), Golfer's Daily (quips and tips), 60-Second Smart (trivia), even Jeopardy! and Chicken Soup for the Soul versions.

The software also comes with more substance and function. There is a daily planner, though it will be upstaged by the daily missives if you already are wedded to a PC planner. Greeting cards, featuring dramatic art grabs from the dailies, can be constructed with only a few simple strokes and commands. Also add your own pictures, words and music to the daily page backgrounds and get an instant screen saver.

Day-Savor calendars are easy to set up and, unlike the real-life counterpart, are perpetual. Your computer does the flipping automatically for you.

Calendars remain a gift industry staple, ranging from the basic to the elaborate, but they're becoming increasingly popular as men's and corporate gifts.

Available in Canada from Canadian Manda, Toronto, it greets the user with a new message, music, the day and date and lets the user add a personal greeting and print, fax or e-mail it with or without graphics.

DAY BY DAY

Some computer software ideas are better left on paper (3M's Post-it software, for example), but others are convenient time-savers we love from multimedia products. Day-Savor Screen-A-Day-Calendar certainly fits the bill. It functions like many of the flip-up calendars that sit on our desks for days before we notice they need changing. The computer, however, automatically flips Day-Savor Calendars with each new day. The software, easily loaded from two diskettes, is timed by the clock from your PC. It uses only 2 percent of your computer's memory. Each day you turn on your machine, you're greeted with a new full-screen image containing a message, music and the date. Day-Savor calendars, like their per-day cousins, come in several categories, including daily horoscopes, affirmations, famous quotes, Bible versus and angel messages.

 TREND TRACKING

One of the many up-and-comers of the computer era, screen savors offer a unique gift alternative for consumers. Current screen-saver selections are geared more toward the trend set than the tech set, designed with mind-catching themes and eye-catching packaging. Skeptical? Think of it this way: there are a lot of computers in the world, and every computer has a screen to save ... Not another reference to the millennium! Well maybe just one more.

Screen-A-Day-Calendar screen savers from KaizenWorks Publishing 310.577.8660 come in astrology, famous quotes, angels, trivia, sports, and a Millennium 2000 Countdown Clock.

ASTROLOGY SCREEN SAVORS

A very new astrological product that will catch the fancy of computers users is a new screen saver program called the DaySavor Astrology (KaizenWorks Publishing, 1223 Wilshire Blvd., Suite 320, Santa Monica, CA 90403, 310.577.8660. At its basic best, this screen saver flashes two different images every single day, each illustrated by full-screen color graphics. On start-up, it shows a personal message for the birth sing stipulated by the user, and after sever minutes it switches to screen saver mode and shows a message for a second stipulated sign, if desired. Day-Savor is a perpetual calendar, and the message changes every day, corresponding to the astrological energies in effect.

For someone like me, who works at a computer for hours each day, DaySavor is a painless, no-effort method to find out what is going on astrologically. I find these messages very appropriate and useful, and I really appreciate the reminders. The text always seems accurate, and I commend text authors Jennifer Thompson and Kramer Wetzell for their grasp of astrological interpretation.

With just a little more effort on my part, I can use this program to do all sorts of neat tricks. I can print the graphic and message, embellish and expand the message, have the message pop up at regular intervals, e-mail or fax the message to someone else customize the fonts and colors, and more.

In user-friendly fashion, this PC-compatible software has been designed to take up minimal storage space on the hard drive. Plus, this program is part of a series of screen savers offered by KaizenWorks, and all have been designed to reduce hard disk needs by accessing the same basic programming for all the related screen savers.

DAY SAVOR SCREEN-A-DAY-CALENDARS

It's the start of another workday, and you're turning on your computer. What is the first thing you see on the screen? It could be a fresh inspirational quote, affirmation, or biblical verse complete with screen picture and musical greeting. These Screen-A-Day calendars for PC users include screen savers, and can be customized with your own favorite quotes, images, and music. You can also add a note of your own and create a personalized print-out which can e-mailed or faxed as a message, with or without images. KaizenWorks president Nikki Kilgore perceived a need in the software market for an "easy to use product with a utilitarian purpose and a spiritual or inspirational message." These fit the bill. Five different calendars make up the line including one with angel messages and one that gives a daily horoscope; new themes are being released every few months.
