Twitter to your heart's content
We hope you've been having as much fun twittering with Sandy as we have. And finding it as useful as we are.
Being able to offload a passing thought or set a reminder for something you're sure you'll forget to do sure is a stress-reliever. And doing so without any sort of context switch means being able to let that thought go and stay focused on the task at hand. Whether you're sifting through email, IM'ing with a friend, or boarding a plane, mobile phone in hand, Sandy's never more than a few keystrokes away.
For the past two weeks you've been able twitter "remember this" and "remind me about that" tweets to Sandy, look things up, and receive reminder tweets. Today we've added the ability to update and forget (delete) items too -- just like you're already used to doing by email.
Here's a sample Twitter conversation with Sandy to give you some of the flavor...
> d s remember chris likes french cheese
> [Sandy] #1 I got: chris likes french cheese
> d s update #1 chris likes good french cheese
> [Sandy] #2 I updated: chris likes good french cheese
> d s forget #2
> [Sandy] I forgot: chris likes good french cheese
You can also now snooze reminder tweets, like so:
> [Sandy] #3 Reminder: go for a walk (Wed, 12/19/2007 12:45pm)
> d s remind me in 5 minutes
> [Sandy] #4 I updated: go for a walk (Wed, 12/19/2007 12:45pm)
You'll find far more detail on Sandy's Twitter help page at http://iwantsandy.com/help/twitter.
Or head right on over to Sandy's Twitter settings at http://iwantsandy.com/settings/twitter and start twittering with Sandy.
We hope you find this a useful and natural an addition to Sandy's abilities and look forward to your sharing your experiences with us.
