04. Reminders systems with email and sms

These are reminder systems that send you an email when a deadline is reached (or is about to be reached). For example, lets say you have a deadline for project/essay plans to be completed. So you set a reminder for say 48 hours before, since you know you may forget. Then a reminder is sent out automatically, either by email (free) or through sms (not so free). As a Blackberry user with instant access to email, I do not need the sms option. The more sophisticated versions have a whole "college course management system". This could be very useful for some, especially if they had somebody to help ensure everything is put on the system.
