It sounds like sandy needs a vc injection for a UI guy!

Any news on this?

Aitese's reply to "Change the reminder time with an email" was just promoted to the most useful! Betsy True and 2 other people think it's one of the best replies.

Hi all,

The way I have been told, as I have asked this question before, is to set your reminder for the event as normal:

"r super meeting on wed 14:00"

But if you don't have email confirmations set to AUTOREPLY you can force a reply with "@reply"

So it is now:

"r super meeting on wed 14:00 @reply"

Sandy will confirm your 2pm meeting with an email and set the email reminder for 1:45pm:

"Good morning, HeG!

I added this to the calendar:

#1 super meeting on Wed 14:00
- Email reminder at 13:45"

The workaround is to the REPLY to the confrimation email with the actual time you'd like the email reminder:

"r 10am" or
"remind me at 10am"

The SCHEDULED time will remain the same but the REMINDER time will change to 10am (or whatever time you have chosen)

"Hi, HeG!

I updated this for you:

#1 super meeting on Wed 14:00
- Email reminder at 10:00"

Hopefully they will impliment being able to set a schedule entry AND reminder time in the same email soon.

A comment on the idea "Weekly digest?" in I want Sandy:

Thanks, the printing from the website works great! I'd still like to get the email in weekly format; it would save me time going to the website to do the printing. Thanks! – Betsy True, on June 02, 2008 10:33

This is Insane.. I DON'T WANT TO USE TWITTER To RECEIVE ANY SANDY NOTIFICATIONS VIA SMS!! No No. That would be too expensive!
But I want to send to her.

Unlike everyone else, I like the Comic Sans AND the yellow color, but I'm not getting them in yellow anymore. Is there a way to specify colors or skins for our I want Sandy digests?

I like this idea! – notsheep, on May 02, 2008 16:41

A comment on the idea "Weekly digest?" in I want Sandy:

Just to be sure this is covered: you can print any of Sandy's lists or digests right from your browser using the "Print" link on any page — or printing as you usually do. There's a nice print stylesheet that takes care of formatting this for the printer. – Rael Dornfest, on May 01, 2008 14:45

Betsy True marked one of Theory's replies in I want Sandy as useful. Theory replied to the question "Personal Tags or Keywords".

Betsy True replied on April 09, 2008 16:46 to the question "Personal Tags or Keywords" in I want Sandy:

thanks for the prompt response! It wasn't clear to me when I read the help guide about tags. This is great!

Theory replied on April 09, 2008 16:30 to the question "Personal Tags or Keywords" in I want Sandy:

Yep, just apply whatever tags you want, just as you've written them here. Sandy will pick them up and you'll be able to search for them from the tags page, e.g., http://iwantsandy.com/list?sort=tag&t...

HTH,

Theory

Betsy True asked a question in I want Sandy on April 09, 2008 12:00:

Personal Tags or Keywords

Can one do personal tags? Or maybe there is an existing function that already does this? I would like to add some kind of keyword or tag to my todos or my appointments so that I can lookup all the ones that are related. For example, as a quilter, I need to enter shows, so I would like to be able to return a list of all the show deadlines that I schedule, or all the entry todos that I have added. In this case I would enter @deadline or @quilt or @quiltshow or something.

Thanks, I'm just starting to really get into using Sandy and love it!

Btsy

I would definitely be interested in multiple addresses, as I have different ones for different groups I belong to and I'm always getting bounced when I try to forward an email with a reminder. This would be worth paying a fee for!
