Facebook Events and Birthdays

When you 'Connect with Facebook' to add Facebook Events and Birthdays the items you import are all private. You can then privately invite other people to these events, this is especially useful for Public Events you are attending but want to invite others to. Facebook does not have calendar and we find the Calendar Apps to be too limited on the features they offer. You will find this feature on the right hand column in the Agenda.

We reserve the right, at a future date, to charge for services and storage of Diary.com that are currently given as free. This is to keep the high level of service and protection of your Diary data. We will inform all Diary.com members well in advance of any changes regarding this matter.
