The Web Worker Daily blog has a good post on how to get the most out of the extremely useful google calendar web app. One handy tip is how to configure the calendar so that you receive reminders about upcoming important events.

Receive event reminders and other notifications. GCal provides reminders by email, SMS, or pop-ups in the calendar itself. Specify your default reminder type under “Setting” > “Notifications.” To get text message notifications, you’ll need to verify your mobile phone number by specifying it on the Notifications page and then entering the verification code that’s sent to you by GCal. You decide what sort of notifications you receive about events and invitations. Note that event reminders only include those for your primary calendar.
