Sandy, check my to do list...

I like to use Remember the Milk as a to do list. I wish Sandy could go check my to do list for me (by reading iCal or atom list)

What else would be great... If I told Sandy "Call" or "Order" or "Email" instead of "Remember" that these things show up in their own section of the daily digest, so all of today's calls are in one place, all of today's emails in another. I could do the same thing by adding tags to these, but it would be fun if Sandy just knew the difference!

Thanks for the clarification. Your second example is more in line with what I intended. Looking back, I see that I did not type what I meant.

amsibert marked one of ukslim's replies in I want Sandy as useful. ukslim replied to the idea "I want to be able to specify in my email how soon before the event to be notified".

"Remember Tom's birthday is 5/11/1979"

tagged with @yearly won't show up every year?

I use them for 2 different things. I use Jott mainly to communicate. Jott to myself, Jott to my roommate, or co-worker. Sandy is much better organized, I believe, with everything from a calendar to an address book.

Besides, it is much more fun to ask my boss who his personal assistant is!

amsibert replied on March 14, 2008 14:42 to the problem "Can't set appointments in Sandy through Jott, Is it me?" in I want Sandy:

I have aterrible time with Jott understanding me. Jott doesn't seem to reliably interpret my words. If you look at the Jott, does it really say the same thing you said?

What I typically do because of this is Jott myself, then send a correct version to Sandy next time I'm at my computer.

amsibert replied on March 14, 2008 14:37 to the question "Can the emailed daily digest be weekly instead?" in I want Sandy:

I agree. My daily digest would actually be best to show the next 7 days, received each morning.

amsibert replied on March 14, 2008 14:04 to the question "how come Sandy doesn't recognize the contact info i sent her as a Contact?" in I want Sandy:

I had this problem too. Adding a comma makes it easier for Sandy to interpret?

amsibert replied on March 14, 2008 14:02 to the question "How can I send something to notes if it has a date in it?" in I want Sandy:

Also, if you add @yearly to it, it will show up every year on that date.

I had a similar problem, when combined with @todo Once the todo is marked done, the reminder didn't show up for the next occurance.
