I'm also using Win7, but I have no interest in additional gadgets,, I only use the clock and calendar... I guess I don't want much of a cramped screen... (I haf more than 10 anime mascots running around usually, though)..

I'm using these two:
http://rocketdock.com/
http://download.cnet.com/Circle-Dock/3000-2344_4-10915490.html
I have them both hidden all the time but I press like Alt+Spacebar and the circle dock pops out.
I have literally no icons on my desktop, keeps it nice and clean
What my desktop looks like usually:

What my desktop looks like when I show everything:

Besides that I don't think I have any other gadgets.

i you don't mind running a google desktop in the background try download that. It eats a bit of memory though. I have it always running but I don't really any lag. Google desktop have a lot of gadgets you can download including a couple of different clocks/alarm clocks. Also I think windows sidebar has an alarm clock feature. I'm pretty sure you already have the windows sidebar installed on my computer. It might be called "desktop gadget gallery".

If you are looking for some cool-looking but not-so-useful (lol) gadgets, you may want to check out this thread.
