Tomorrow's/This Week's tasks in Google Calendarq

paulpatr says:
Hello,
I am using RTM to keep track of my course assignments and such, and enter items such as "ISB 221 week3 paper" due on Friday(for example).

I don't use the iCalendar feed, but instead have the extra RTM calendar that throws a checkmark circle on each day.

My problem is this: it isn't very helpful for RTM to tell me about my paper that's due on Friday.. on Friday.
Would it be possible to have the checkmark dropdown boxes include a "Due Tomorrow" and/or "Due This Week" and/or "Due within X Days" list, in addition to the "Today" and "Overdue" lists already available?

Although, I still don't think this would be the ideal solution for managing homework... Any ideas/advice? Currently, I think I'm just going to make good use of the Weekly Planner here on RTM(independent from google calendar)--and perhaps plan dates× to complete specific assignments and plot those on google calendar, but it'd be cool to have something more automated!

The RTM gadgets and add-ons do exactly what you're asking for. For example, putting the following link as a Firefox bookmark loaded in the FF sidebar: http://www.rememberthemilk.com/services/modules/googleig/

Or, the iGoogle gadget. Or the GMail add-on (although that one is having temporary problems until RTM adjusts to changes Google made to Gmail).

All of them will set you up nicely.

Another approach is not to use the Gcal gadget, but rather subscribe to the RTM feed in Gcal like this:

This looks a lot better, though it misses the option of displaying the date-less tasks.
