I assume what you're talking about is something for Windows? I think 
just that by itself, a windows systray app would't be a very big 
project - certainly shouldn't take all summer.

If you wanted to make a Gecko extension as well, something with it's 
own toolbar, notifications, shortcuts, etc., that might be more of a 
project, and you could always do both. And then there are Gnome systray 
apps, ... etc. Be a little ambitious, make sure your application is 
thorough, and good luck!
