Time

Keeping track of time and tasks to be done is important in all of life - but extremely important when one is taking an online course. It is very easy for time to get away and assignments not to get done. So, we begin by looking at ways to organize time as our first set of tools for examination. (Don't forget to look for a tasks manager or list maker with the calendar services.)

Note: I have been asked about calendars that sync with one's phone (as well as one's computer) in the past. I know that Google and Yahoo! Calendars sync, because I have those synced with my phone. I strongly suspect AOL and Windows Live/Hotmail will sync as readily. I am less sure about the others, but it is a good feature to investigate as you evaluate the various calendar services.
