You can just log into your Google Calendar and click on any empty slot to create a calendar reminder. Click on the reminder tab when a new box comes up and enter the details – what should Google remind you about, date, time, should it repeat, and whether the reminder should be there for all day. You can use the Google Calendar from any computer browser or a mobile phone or tablet just like you use the Calendar in your Microsoft Office Outlook application.
