Jott - Episode 2
Jott blogs have NOT been edited. The below message is exactly as I Jotted, hence some minor errors. Comments that I have added after the original blog are italicized, as is this paragraph.
Jott episode two. Right now I’m on the light rail train headed down town Salt Lake City and I’m updating my blog with Jott. Let me text rapolate. As you can see from my last blog entry Jott is a really cool service with lots of free features. Today I’ll be covering the feature of reminders. To record reminder for yourself, you need to do two things. First sign up at jott.com that is www.jott.com. All you need is to give them your phone number and your e-mail, the second step leave you reminder. Call the 1-8… listen
So, It cut out after about 30 seconds. I believe that is the longest recording Jott will do. That means I need to be sure to Jott only short blogs, or Jott blogs in parts. Let me finish the blog with another Jott:
The second step is to leave your reminder call the 1-800 number and the Jott system will automatically detect to your phone number and read it back to you. A pleasant female voice will give you the voice prompt. What would you like to Jott? you say reminder then a female voice ask you a date and a time after you give the date and the time you can record a message. The message is then sent to your email box and also a form of text message to your phone 15 minutes before you leave a reminder. You should try it out. Jott is free and easy, it’s a great service I used all the time for my reminders. listen

I am impressed with how accurately the message was transferred from voice to text (despite the few minor errors). It is too bad that only about 30 seconds of voice recording is allowed, but then again I guess that is all you need if you are just trying to “jott” something down as a reminder. This seems like an innovative idea that is convenient for someone who doesn’t like to carry around a planner.
