Alarm/Reminder Software

[Positively Negative]

Hi forum,
I seem to have dodgy memory of late so i've been putting reminders on my cellphone to remind me of weekly events etc. Is there a decent software you guys could recommend that sets off an 'alarm' or pop up to remind me .I have tried sticky notes but after awhile i just get used to them being a part of the screen.I'd like something more noisier

cheers

Google Calendar.... it can even send e-mails, pop-ups or SMS you to remind you of stuff.

Does Google calendar actually support sending SMS's to this lovely country of ours?

No SMSs, but it can sync. to your phone calender and you should be able to set an alarm/notification from there.

Yes, it can. I use the feature regularly. You just need to set up your phone in Account Settings.

Thanks Gary. This will be VERY useful to me!

I stand corrected. Hadn't set up my phone so I didn't have that option
Thanks though, will definitely use it.

Just remember whenever you create an appointment or a recurring task to set your reminder options for that event as well.
You can choose between pop-up (if you normally keep Gmail open), or an SMS, or an e-mail.
