This is a collection of tips, tricks and ideas on how lists can be used in iwantsandy.

Howdy,

Just one of the various tweaks and twiddles I've been working on is today's fix for the Sandy jotters [http://iwantsandy.com/help/jott] among you.

TWEAKED: Support for jotting multi-word special tags

Jott [http://iwantsandy.com/help/jott] to Sandy? If so, you've no doubt run into an issue jotting Sandy multi-word (or multi-word-sounding) tags like @todo, @noreminder, and @noreply. "Remind me to change the oil in the car tag with to-do" turned what should have been @todo into @to @do. "Remember to consider that offer on Monday @noreminder" ended up being tagged as @no @reminder.

We worked with Sandy over the weekend to recognize and re-assemble those multi-word tags for you on the fly. Now whenever you jott "...tag with to-do," @todo is what you'll get. And the same goes for: "no reminder," "no reply," etc.

NEW: Turn Sandy's email replies to your jotts on or off

Prefer Sandy not email a reply to each and every one of your jotts? No problem! Turn Sandy's email replies to your jotts on or off at http://iwantsandy.com/settings/jott#r... .

Please note that we've asked Sandy _not_ to email a reply by default to avoid any unnecessary email cluttering your inbox. Feel free, however, to go ahead and turn email replies back on if you prefer.

Remember too that you can explicitly ask Sandy not to reply — on a jott by jott basis — by saying "tag with no-reply." And if you have Sandy's jott email replies turned off but would like an email reply to one jott in particular, just say "tag with reply."

P.s. We thrive on your feedback! Be sure to let us know what you think, what you liked (or didn't), and if we missed anything (or made anything worse).

Howdy!

Last night's update brought with it some brand new calendar subscription functionality (specially — though not only — for you Google Calendar folk), enhanced printing, fixed Twitter and Jott lookups, and other tweaks and twiddles...

NEW: iCal, gCal, we-all-Cal with iCal

FIXED: Better understanding of "dotty" time ranges

Sandy occasionally finds our human brand of punctuation disconcerting (and who doesn't? ;-) And that's why we are always working with Sandy to ever-more-accurately pick dates and times out of our messages.

To that end, Sandy now fully groks "dotty" time ranges — those chock full of periods or dots like this one: "10 a.m. to 9:45 p.m."

If you're finding Sandy still has trouble with your particular brand of specifying dates and times, please help us help Sandy help you: post the nitty-gritty details here on GetSatisfaction and we'll get it all sorted for you.

ENHANCED: Printing

Earlier this week we rolled out a completely reworked the print stylesheet [Read all about it at http://gsfn.us/t/axx] to produce a nice lovely paper copy of Your stuff or your Daily Digest.

And we just couldn't keep ourselves from enhancing Sandy's printed self still further!

* You'll find a "Print" link to both the Your stuff and Daily Digest (i.e. your iwantsandy.com home page). 1. Click > 2. Print > 3. Fold > 4. Experience increased increased awareness of what your day holds.

* Sandy's full-color beaming countenance has been replaced with a grey-scale (though no less beaming) version to save your printer a drop or three of color.

* The font size was reduced ever so slightly to fit more on a single page, saving you some paper-shuffling and the planet some lovely trees.

* Sandy now includes a reminder about checking in with her at the end of the day so that you can synch up on anything you crossed off the paper copy of your to-do list, added to the calendar, or otherwise would like her to remember for you.

FIXED: Lookups via Twitter and Jott

We inadvertently introduced a bug that caused Sandy (and you) some head-ache around looking things up via Twitter and Jott. This has been rectified and you should now be seeing results returned as expected.

If you are still having trouble for some reason, please do post here and let us know.

TWEAKED: Pagination honors "Include..."

Thanks to the terrific eyesite of Sandy's client "Bluedrums" [http://gsfn.us/t/ay7], we were alerted to and fixed a bug that caused pagination (clicking the "<->" links) to forget any "Include done", "Include archived", and "Include past" toggling you'd done in the right-hand sidebar's advanced filtering and sorting.

FIXED: Replying re-honors preferences

Also introduced during our updates of the other evening was a bug which confused Sandy into replying to email when you'd plainly asked her not to (in your Email settings at http://iwantsandy.com/settings/email). Kudos to Marshall for noticing and fixing the issue all but immediately.

TWEAKED: Line-height of individual items in lists

Individual items were wrapping oddly in some browsers. Thanks, Shawn [http://gsfn.us/t/9ar] for pointing it out!

Onward and upward!
