If you're the type of user who starts up their computer most every day, your MiniMinder countdowns will be there for you each time you reach the desktop. Give your reminders a glance and then exit the program by clicking the red button.

If you're the type of user whose computer is always on, after you've looked over the day's reminders, instead of exiting the program, you can click the orange button to send the program to the System Tray, where MiniMinder uses the absolute minimum of system resources waiting for the new day.

When the new day comes, MiniMinder will return to display itself on the desktop. Once you've taken notice of your reminders, you can then send MiniMinder back to the tray.
