    Getting the contents of a list sent to my mobile phone

    I want to get Sandy to send my shopping list to my phone. I use twitter to communicate with sandy on the mobile, since she won't direct SMS overseas (I'm in NZ). When I text her with "l grocery list" she sends back, "I found this: grocery list," but she does not send the contents of the list! How do I get her to send the list contents?

    "Remind me" vs "Remember" Last reply on May 10, 2008 21:02.

    I just figured out that Sandy has different behavior for "Remind me..." and "Remember...."

    For "Remind me" she will *always* assign the item to a time, taking a guess if one isn't obvious. For example, "Remind me to testing @home @todo", results in:

    <quote>
    #1 Sat, 5/10 5:00am Testing

    * email reminder at 5:00am
    * tagged with home and todo

    I didn't see a date or time for this reminder, so I scheduled it for 11pm.
    </quote>

    But, "Remember testing @todo", just results in the todo item without a time, unless you explicitly put a time in the message, e.g. "Remember test today at 7pm @todo"

    This wasn't at all obvious to me from the documentation (though I admit I'm lousy at reading documentation), so I thought I'd share.

    BTW, I find the "Remember..." semantics to be much more intuitive and will start using remember exclusively.

    BTW^2, "R" is apparently short for "Remember" and not "Remind".

    How do I list multiple items in a note? Last reply on May 10, 2008 21:41.

    I know there was a thread before about making a list. What I'd like to do is be able to make a short list within a note, e.g.

    Title: Add e-m addresses to newsletter

    List is:

    bobo@clown.com
    rarity@unicorn.com

    I remember there were asterisks involved...

    Use Flurry.com Instead Of Twitter.com Last reply on May 11, 2008 21:11.

    Maybe Sandy would be happier working with flurry.com instead of twitter.com, because flurry.com allows us to make groups. The groups can be an opportunity for Sandy to perform group calendaring and group reminding, instead of just individual calendaring and individual reminding.

    Sorting & dates

    On my daily digest, I also have the tagged items (as opposed to today's items-e.g. @contact, @errand, etc.) sorted in some random order. Is there a way to fix that? I'd rather have the items within the categories sorted by date.

    Also, the items in those categories that are tagged "@annually" do not show a date unless I click on the item to view it. However, I'm not sure if this is because the items without dates are not in this month. (Right now all my "@annually" items in my "@errands" category happen in the month of June. These are the only ones without dates.)
