For this installment, I wrote an application to keep track of the countdown to a given day. It shows days, hours, minutes, seconds until the event on a borderless, transparent form overlaid anywhere on the screen. It demonstrates borderless transparency (cool stuff!), constrained movement, arbitrary dragging region on a form, topmost, and variable opacity. Check it out at:
