The start
page that I used was that of Google. I
used this one because I use Google on a regular basis and I have two email
accounts with them. I will make this my
permanent homepage because it is pleasing to the eye and it automatically
connects me to news that interests me without bombarding me with a bunch of
information that will all go unnoticed.
The
online calendar that I set up was with Google as well since I have a few accounts
with Google already. This widget will
come in handy if I am connected to the internet a majority of the time. Unfortunately,
I have not yet upgraded to a smart phone so the only time I am connected to the
internet is when I am on my laptop. Yet and
still, this widget can still serve purpose if I find myself on the computer for
an extended period of time and something has slipped my mind. If I updated my online calendar, I will get a
notice and thus, my original plan will have been salvaged.
The
online To-Do List is very convenient if you have s smart phone. Otherwise it will not do one too much
good. It is definitely worth the time to
set up if you have a mobile device to take advantage of the service
though. Too bad I am still in the “stone
age” era of cellular devices.
These
applications can definitely serve a great purpose, especially, if you have them
via smart phone. Many times wireless
phones and other mobile wireless devices have to-do lists and calendars built
in it already, however, being able to sync your information from your phone to
your laptop for easy modification or vice versa seems like a more convenient method
of managing your day. I would use these
features if I had a smart phone and I would definitely recommend the use of
these applications to anyone in school or who has a daily busy schedule.
