Aldira,

Check out Google Calendar at calendar.google.com.

Here is a review on it - [google.about.com]. See what you think!

Do other's have any other suggestions on some good internet tools?

I like using iCal on my macbook. I have found I can download different calendars to it (like holidays), events from invite services like Evite, and even other events like school sports schedules or other favorite sports teams schedules. There are color coding options, alarms and reminders you can set, etc. It also syncs to my iPhone so even if I don't have my computer with me, I know what's going on with my schedule. This has been my favorite organizational tool so far.

I'm pretty sure microsoft outlook has similar features as well that can be synced with some of the other smart phones out there.

I agree with the two other answers!

If you have a cell phone, I'd try and google to see if the Calendar program you use can sync to it so that you can get reminders about it. I also use iCal, but if you do not have a mac you can use Microsoft Outlook (which definitely sync's to any smart phone). Before I had any of that stuff, I did use a planner, you just have to make sure you use it and remember to check it frequently/carry it around with you, that way you will always know.

Hope you find a program!

There are some good suggestions here... I think that no matter what tool you choose, the key is tha tyou remember to use it! You can have the best calendar but if you forget to write your appointmts, deadlines, and such, it won't do you much good. My two cents.
