Twitter to Sandy
Hello friends of Sandy,
As some of Sandy's more adventurous clients have already noticed*, Sandy's more than aflutter over Twitter [http://twitter.com]. She's ready to chat with you by direct private message from your mobile phone over text/SMS or your desktop via instant messenger (AIM, iChat, Gtalk, and LiveJournal).
Twitter with Sandy by direct private message just as you would any of your other Twitter friends and she'll twitter you back (almost always within a minute).
To get Twitter and Sandy talking, visit your Twitter settings at http://iwantsandy.com/settings/twitter and follow the 4 easy steps to introduce Sandy to your Twitter self.
Essentially, you'll become Twitter friends, mutually following one-another.
Then try:
> d s hi
(In Twitter-speak, this means: "Send Sandy a direct private message saying 'hi'." Note that Sandy's Twitter user name is "S" rather than "Sandy" or "iwantsandy", saving your thumbs some mobile typing.)
Sandy will reply to your tweet with instructions on asking her to remember or remind you about things, look things up, etc.
> Hi, I'm Sandy, your personal assistant.
> Set a reminder: r go for a walk in 15 mins
> Look something up: l today
> Invite a friend: invite pat@example.com
> About me: visit iwantsandy.com
> More examples: visit iwantsandy.com/examples
> Help: visit iwantsandy.com/help/twitter
Right now Sandy will respond to "remember" or "remind" ("r" in even shorter shorthand), "lookup" ("l" as in lower-case "L"), and "invite" ("i"). She'll soon be able to update and forget on Twitter just as she does in email.
****
Don't forget the "d s" bits when twittering to Sandy!** Twitter is a broadcast medium by default, so simply twittering "remember to wear pants" (while an entertaining tweet ;-) will go out to all of your Twitter followers rather than privately to Sandy.
****
You'll find more detail on Sandy's Twitter help page at http://iwantsandy.com/help/twitter
Enjoy!
