The web-based version of Google Calendar lets you set many of the options for your calendar that you can’t set on the Droid X. So in your computer’s browser, head over to www.google.com/calendar/ to set those options. When you visit www.google.com/calendar/ in your Droid X’s browser, Google will automatically recognize that you’re using a Droid X, and you’ll see a version of Google Calendar on the Web specifically designed to display nicely on the Droid X. You can create new events, but you won’t be able to change all the options that you can change if you use your computer to visit; it’s somewhat stripped down.
If you’re already a Google Calendar or Gmail user, you may have come across and used Google Tasks, a very simple and very useful way to keep track of all your to-dos. When you use Google Calendar on the Web, your task list appears at the right side of the screen.
But the Tasks feature is nowhere to be found on either the Droid X calendar, or on the Google Calendar version designed to be viewed on the Web with your Droid X browser.
Ah, but that doesn’t mean you can’t get to it on the Droid X. You can. It’s just that Google has put it somewhere you didn’t expect. Go to http://gmail.com/tasks. You’ll find Google Tasks there, in all its glory.
