Have you ever wanted to get your GIS to talk to your calendar?  If you have a feature with a date field, you may like to set an apointment in MS Outlook based on the date. You'd need to use a search cursor to access the attributes in your feature class, and then you could alter the code below to add to your calendar. I forget where I picked up this toy code, but you might google for "python MS Outlook"...

(EXAMPLE:  you may want to have appointments generated to go check on expired permits.)

appointment.Start = '2007-10-23 17:00'
appointment.Subject = 'Mountain biking'
appointment.Duration = 15
appointment.Location = 'Gooseberry Mesa'
appointment.Save()
print "done"
