Where am I?

This is your personal calendar. You can create events and tasks here, just as you would record them in a personal organizer.
You can let other users view your calendar and add events (for example, to invite you to a meeting). You are free to accept or decline events that others have added.

If you are setting up a meeting, you can invite others using the Participants tab.

You can make your event a repeating event, and also generate a reminder for yourself.
