I had already set up my home page with google. Today I added some widgets to it that will help me, such as a to do list,gmail , my notebook and stickies. By adding these things to my page, I will continue to use it because I have made it useful. I also have already started my calendar through google. I enjoy the fact that it will email me my schedule in the morning. It will also email and text me(yes on my cell phone) reminders of events. I LOVE THIS! There is one thing that is bothersome..It is showing my primary email as my gmail account. I really want my reminders to come to my school address. Is there anyway to fix this?
I checked out the to do lists online. I signed up with Remember the milk. It works with the google tools like gmail and calendar. Your lists show up in gmail and it integrates your tasks with your calendar in google. I can see how this will be very useful for me personally.
Ok. I have signed up for My stickies but since I use Firefox and Safari, I have to use a plug in for it to work. It is more trouble I am thinking. The idea is awesome, being able to sticky a page from the web and it be there when you get back! I am going to continue checking for this so I can use it and I can show my kids how to use it. This will be a great thing when we are doing projects.

I don't specifically know how to get your reminders sent to your school e-mail address, but I do know that with gmail you can have several different e-mail addresses all going to the same account. Maybe you just need to add your school address?
There has to be a way to do that - just keep playing with the settings. You'll figure it out!
