U.S. Time Change Reminder
Daylight Savings Time comes three weeks early this Sunday at 2 am and could cause problems with your computer regarding calendar, emails, and other date/time sensitive programs.

It’s likely that the worst thing that will happen to you next week is a couple of missed meetings. There’s an easy fix for that: Edit your online calendar to include the correct time in the meeting’s subject line. That way if your computer uses the wrong timestamp, you’ll have it covered. And on Monday, wear a watch.
