Concatenate @to @do, @to do (esp. useful for Jott)
When I Jott myself a todo, it rather frequently interprets "tag with todo" as "tag with to do", which gets me a remember tagged with @to and @do. This falls off my daily listing and pretty rarely shows up when I want it to.
I have also mis-typed and entered "@to do" by mistake.
Yes, I can bypass Jott's helpfulness in this regard by tagging as "tee oh dee oh", but that makes me sound like an idiot when I'm asking my virtual secretary for appointments.
It might be a nice helpful feature if Sandy automatically concatenated tag requests which separate or hyphenate "to" and "do" into, simply, "@todo." That would fix Jott as well as general stupidity (or at least make some headway against it).

Inappropriate?I agree!! No matter how I say "todo" with Jott, it always comes in as @do @to. Since I find it hard to believe that anyone would actually want a reminder tagged with @do @to, I would support a system that would automatically concatenate that to @todo. Considering how important @todo is to the Sandy experience, I would think this to be a significant addition.
Thanks!

this is one of the best points

Inappropriate?I think I've found a work around which I picked up from another post, though I don't remember where. Try saying "tee-oh dee-oh". I find that it generally works.

Inappropriate?Well, I tried that approach, and what I got was @podo. It was worth a shot. I'm sure if I annunciated a little more, I might get it. But, what should be only 1/2 second is now going to take about 3. I'll stick with it for now, but I like Nik's idea better. Thanks for the suggestion.

Inappropriate?Wow, I just posted this question. Too bad it didn't take me to the previous same complaints which Jott/Sandy are ignoring.

Inappropriate?Update: Wait a minute - this is working. Hey! Nevermind. :)
Original:
When I sent myself a test "tag with to-do", it came through as @todo. That would be great, except that Sandy treats that as separate from @to-do.
C'mon, guys. Isn't there a way to treat these two variants as equivalent?
