About Reminders

A reminder can be just for you, or set to remind all or
some of your colleagues.
An alarm goes off when the time you gave for the reminder is
reached. If you asked for them, emails are sent out at this point, and
an alarm indicator 
is shown at the top of
every page (next to your name), which will show all alarms that have gone off if you
click it.

Time zones
Colleagues may be working in
different locations and therefore time zones. You can say which time
zone you are in using
on the menu.
When you set a reminder, you are doing so relative to your own time
zone. That will be the same absolute time for everyone, so
for some people your convenient 5pm may be in the middle of their
night. That may be inconvenient but unavoidable.
People in time zones different to you will see the time posted in
their own local time when they look at the page or get emails about
it.
