You know you're a child of the internet age when...

Hanging behind my desk I have a rather lovely Emily the Strange calendar. It's there because it's pretty, and because I occasionally need to check things like what the date will be two weeks from Tuesday.

It has only just occured to me that another use for such a device is to use the blank spaces attached to each date to write down things like meetings and appointments. And it only occured to me at all because I overheard someone on the other side of the room mention writing something down in his calendar.
