Howdy, folks!

(Please forgive the cross-posting.)

With yesterday's update, this is finally done!

As Sandy just announced on the site:

"""
NEW FEATURE You can now toggle individual occurrences of a repeating to-do! Just click a to-do's checkbox and — if it is one of a series of repeating to-dos (a weekly reminder to take out the trash, for instance) — only that day's to-do will be marked as done. Neat, eh?
"""

Enjoy! (And I'm sorry this was such a long time in coming.)

To twitter sandy you have to send her a twitter direct message. But all you have to do to do that is "d s r event at 5 pm @todo @noreply" for example. The "d" tells twitter that you are sending a direct message. The "s" is Sandy's twitter username. The "r" is the short hand for remind me.The "Event at 5pm" is what you want to be reminded of and the time. The "@todo @noreply" is tags (if you want to add them).

I'm trying to set up my mobile and the text does not go out. I am sending to 40404, but it just stalls in my outbox. I have tried numerous times. Other text messages are coming and going, but I just get a "sending failed" message when trying to send to 40404. I am in the US..... thoughts or advice? Thanks

ok, I don't have twitter, so I just want to clarify before I go sign up and spend time setting up. :) If I twitter I can text to Sandy just like regular. I can set up reminders and lists? My phone won't email Sandy, which just frustrates me to no end. I need to be able to text Sandy!! Is this my best bet? Any helpful hints before I head over to twitter? thanks so much!

found out a cool way to use SMS to send emails, btw. If you just type the e-mail address first in the body of the text, then a space, and then the content of your message, and send it to your service provider's SMS gateway number (AT&T's is 121) it will deliver it as a e-mail. Make sure that your phone's e-mail address (see attached link) is in as your secondary e-mail address, though (DO THIS FIRST). The message would look like this:

"********@*******.iwantsandy.com MESSAGE GOES HERE" (without the quotes)

and you would send it to the SMS gateway

Links:
SMS gateway - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SMS_gate... (look at the SMS to e-mail part)
Phone e-mail address -http://tinywords.com/mobile.html (note: you can also just send yourself and e-mail from your phone and look at the address if this chart is wrong)

The email thing does not work for me. a normal text option would be great!!! I wouldn't think this would be a hard option.... (of course I'm computer illiterate, so I wouldn't really know. :) thanks

Can someone help with this. It has been more almost two weeks and I continue to try this on a daily basis. Sandy is no help to me without sms. This shouldn't be a major issue.
