Haven’t seen too many people use this feature. Google Calendar provides an option to send SMS reminders for all events in your Google Calendar absolutely FREE (unless of course you have a shitty telecom provider that charges for incoming SMS).

Here’s how to get it setup (Follow the links for detailed instructrions from Google Calendar):

• Register for Google Calendar Services
• Make your first Calendar

• Register your Mobile service

  These are the list of supported mobile providers. Even if your provider isn’t listed give it a shot and enter your number. Zain for Kuwait wasn’t listed originally but still worked.

• Customize your event notifications-Now for any particular event/calendar you can add “SMS” Reminders.

A pretty nifty feature, if you want to make sure you never miss an appointment.
