Mini-Calendar Web Part - from Bamboo Solutions
Widely used for collaboration, one of SharePoints main attractions is the ability to quickly build a shared information database through the use of lists. A list in a web site based on Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services is a collection of information that you share with team members. SharePoint sites include a set of built-in lists, such as Announcements, Events, Tasks, Issues, etc. You can immediately fill them with items pertinent to your team. You can use the lists that come with your site as is, you can base them on the designs used for the built-in lists, or you can create custom lists from scratch. If a list includes a date field, our Mini-Calendar Web Part allows you to quickly attach a small calendar view.
