or just have a reminder day tag like @1day, @2day, @7day... All tags would be before the requested reminder and 90 days minimum should satisfy 90% of users. :-)

Any update on this, yet? Has development on a Sandy IM interface started yet? :)

This feature was added in a recent update. See http://getsatisfaction.com/iwantsandy...

You can now use a @reminder tag to tell Sandy when you want to be reminded. After the @reminder tag, put the date you want to be reminded. The date can be fixed (like June 20) or it can be relative to the date you want to remember. (use the word "before")

You can send a message to Sandy like this:
> Remind me that my father's birthday is on April 20th, @reminder three days before.

Right there with you, Geoff and Ron. Would like to see basic contact details when printing that list. While else would anyone print it?

Since Twitter is unreliable, I would really appreciate using IM.

how about:

r dad's birthday july 4
*n july 1 at 11:00

or something like that? or @n...

you could even require that it be a date instead of 3 days from now or that kind of thing.

Hi Waffles! It's definitely been on our agenda, but we'd want to be sure that it was both stable and lived up to expectation. – Rael Dornfest, on June 26, 2008 10:01

Well, I thought I'd dig this up again. Twitter was Sandy's IM interface for a while, and now it's been gone for over a month.

I'm not going to ask for Sandy to have her own IM stuff done this week (although I wouldn't complain if she did). But I would like to know if this is still a possibility.

RJ replied on June 18, 2008 17:46 to the idea "Add IM with Sandy" in I want Sandy:

Right - the IM should not depend on Twitter. Twitter isn't dependable, so if I'm going to depend on Sandy I need a better way of interacting with her. The web interface is nice, but it's not going to integrate with any type of smooth consistent daily workflow. IM solves all those problems and it's not very hard to set up. I want to use Sandy on a daily basis for everything, but I need either a nearly-flawless twitter or IM to make that happen.

Twitter IM is broken. Just thought you'd like to know that.

Ron Sherwood replied on June 15, 2008 00:09 to the question "printable list of contacts that includes details" in I want Sandy:

I agree. The printed report is pretty much useless in its present form. In fact even the online contact list is not very useful, since it only includes name, not any contact info (i.e. you have to click on the entry to bring up the box with the details).

Hi Boz,

I'm sorry to report that Sandy got a bit stuck, but we're on it and she's churning through all those missed digests now.

Please see http://getsatisfaction.com/iwantsandy... for details.

I apologize that we've inconvenienced you.
