Reminders Introduction
Now, thanks to Microft.Com's advanced Internet
Event Recycling Technology
(InERT for short), when someone tries to access a
page that doesn't exist at Microft.Com, the event is not wasted. It is put to
good use to send email Reminders that our users have set up. You can use
InERT, too. Just sign up to use Microft.Com's Reminders. It's
completely FREE! Click on the link below to sign up.
What's a Microft.Com Reminder?
A Microft.Com Reminder is an email that is sent out to remind you of an
important event. What kinds of events? Perhaps a birthday, anniversary, or any
other important event. You can use Microft.Com Reminders to help remember when
it is time to change the oil in the car, the batteries in the smoke dectectors,
or clean those furnace filters.
You set up reminders to be sent out on a specific date and then to be repeated
every so often. You can set them up to be sent every week, month, or year. You
can set up a reminder to be sent every 2 weeks, 3 months, or many other
intervals. You can even set up a Reminder to be sent only once and then
deleted. This is handy for events that don't repeat, like a business meeting or
wedding.
How do I sign up?
When you go to the
Sign up page,
you enter your email address and the password you want to use. We then send you
a registration comfirmation email. Follow the instructions in the email, and
you're registered. You'll then be able to create as many Reminders as you want.
Note: Because Microft.Com is a small organization,
we can't afford our own Web Site Security Certificate (it is about $120/year),
so we cheated and created our own certificate. That is why you get a warning
from your browser saying the Certificate is fine, but wasn't created by a
trusted certificate authority. That's OK, SSL will still work and be secure,
you just have to trust us when we say it is a 1024 bit certificate and will be
secure to use. Tell your browser it is OK to use the certificate, and you'll be
sent to the Registration page.
Privacy Statement: We at Microft.Com respect your
privacy. We would never allow anyone access to your email address. We will
never SPAM you with any email other than Reminders and important notices about
the Reminder Service. Your information is safe with us.
Disclaimer: Because of the way InERT
works, we cannot guarantee that Reminders will always be sent out on the exact
date you specify. However, we have not yet seen a case where they weren't sent
out as scheduled. Because of the vagaries of the way the Internet works, we
cannot be held responsible for failure to deliver Reminders on a timely basis.
