High school students have it made – the first thing they do when they get to school is hang out in homeroom for a few minutes. Joking around with friends about the weekend and checking the day’s class schedule is a good precursor for what every adult should do as well: prepare for the day ahead without diving into tedious work right away. In Adult World, “homeroom” should last for longer than eight minutes and it won’t necessarily include our best buddies. The first real hour of the workday – the “Power Hour” – plays a huge part in setting up the day for success.

Calendars are a great way to get organised and to keep track of the days. However, we usually see the same A4 design in the shops and it can get a bit boring and repetitive every year. Here, we take a look at the most innovative calendars to stimulate your creativity.

Facebook Events Are Finally Super Useful
We've been inviting people to and attending parties through Facebook for years and years and years, but only now are they finally easy to look at: calendar view is here.
The idea of putting all of your Facebook events (and friends' birthdays) onto a calendar within Facebook is so obvious that it's sort of sad that it took a "hackathon" until dawn to come up with it—but we're not complaining.
Facebook events now sport a calendar view, which is exactly what it sounds like. Instead of the current, stupid format which lists events you have in the coming days and then jumps to "later this month," now you have all of your stuff in a nice big calendar. It's a calendar. Ever used a calendar? It looks like that—bunch of boxes with things written on it and pictures of people who will turn a year older on that date. It progresses, inexorably, the march of time ever apparent. It's extremely useful, extremely simple, and extremely welcome.
