As an aside, does anyone make a cron panel for humans? I'd find that really useful as I'm usually so busy being distracted by the next big thing that I forget to take care of repetitive tasks.
I know I can achieve something like that with my Google Calendar but I don't like the way repeating events fill it up -- it would be better if they just showed for the next occurrence.
It does a lot of stuff, but I have it email me every Thursday to remind me to take the trash to the curb. Its just an email, not a calendar alert, but it keeps the clutter off the calendar and I usually see an email within a couple hours anyway.
