"When you decide on your online email system or if you're using a work email system, quite often there will be a calendaring function available. With those types of email systems, you can add events. You can go through and if you have, say, a BlackBerry, it will go through and warn you that such and such an event is about to occur so that you can remember that, "Oh, yes. I really need to do that." Generally speaking, most of the major email systems like Windows Live, Gmail have the ability of setting up calendar functions. And you have the ability also of inviting other people, which actually works quite often across systems. So for instance, you can set up an event in Gmail and you can invite someone from MSN, Hotmail, Windows Live, and they will get the invitation and they can accept it and put it in their calendar. It's the same idea as far as for work. Normally, of course, work email will have something that is a much more integrated system so that as opposed to just emails coming back and forth, it...you can actually check to see if someone's is available. Some of these depend on permissions, but it just takes a little bit of digging and you'll be able to find out how the calendaring function works for your particular email system."
