Looking for a .NET C # component with timezone

Discussing the merits aside, including the "Tip of the Day" in the appendix (a la stackoverflow)

So far I have only found one candidate ( Tip Of Day Dialog ). I prefer to have more than one candidate in order to be able to compare and contrast, and therefore more easily identify the features that one would want. Aside from general searching, the only free component provider I know of is Devexpress , but they don't have a tip component.

2010.04.29 Update:
Just to solve the point JPMarichal: yes, it is easy enough to make such a component, but it still reinvents the wheel and I have a passion (obsession? :-) for finding existing building blocks. The more ubiquitous or ubiquitous something is, the more reasons for creating a finished building block.

The end of the day is just a Windows form and a simple list or database. You can store hints in a SQL Server Compact Edition database, Access database, or whatever you like. He only needs one table, tipping per row. Then use a form with a text box and provide controls to navigate the table rows. It's all.

You can, of course, set it up to display randomly. Anyway, provide controls so the user can disable it if they want.



No more hassle to make a time zone shape, it is very easy to build and because it doesn't have too many components per day. It is easier to build it yourself, then you yourself control the functionality and attractiveness to your liking. It may take less than 20 minutes, or maybe you already have it while you read this paragraph.

Sincerely.
