For each of the lists that you have subscribed to, you should receive two reminders:

Weekly: Firstly, early on the Sunday before the talk, an email entitled "[Talks.cam] This week's talks: (list name)" will tell you about all of the coming week's talks.

Daily: Secondly, early in the morning on the day that the talk is scheduled to occur, an email entitled "[Talks.cam] Today's talks: (list name)" will tell you about all of that day's talks.

Obviously if you subscribe to a list "too late" then you won't get the relevant reminder, e.g. if you subscribe on a Monday, you won't get a "This week's talks" reminder about the current week's talks, the next scheduled weekly reminder will be the following Sunday which will tell you about the following week's talks.

Can I customise the reminder interval?

At the moment, sadly not.

In future we may look into making the timing/frequency of these email reminders customisable; for now, if you choose to subscribe then the timings are fixed as described above.

Are there any alternative ways to get reminders?
