A comment on the question "Remind about time A at time B" in I want Sandy:

@Rael: I tried it too and it seems to be working, except in lists (multiple tasks in a single email). Is it possible that it does not work yet in that scenario?

@Aitese: you are asking Sandy to send multiple reminders for the same task, which does not seem to be supported at the moment. Maybe start a new discussion? – Olivier Gourment, on July 24, 2008 13:43

I just used this fir the first time with an actual upcoming meal, at first I exprerimented with the possibility of using the tag for multiple reminders:

Remind me about Cassie's meal at Ginny's in Bromley at 6pm 15th August @reminder 9pm 14th August @reminder 4pm 15th August

The outcome was totally borked:

I added these to your calendar:

#1 Fri, 15/8 6:00pm Cassie's meal at Ginny's in Bromley 4pm
- email reminder at 5:00pm
- tagged with @reminder

#2 Fri, 25/7 7:00am Cassie's meal at Ginny's in Bromley
- email reminder on Thu, 14/8 at 9:00pm
- tagged with @reminder

Maybe this IS possible but I'm doing it wrong? The idea was I needed to know to put some clothes out the night before, even shave perhaps as I usually trot off to work in the morning looking like a bum, but I still wanted reminding in the afternoon as I also rush out of the office like a kid at the end of school and would not get on the right route to the restaurant.

Is there a way to use multiple tags? I decided to tell Sandy to forget these first 2 and tried with just the evening reminder and the system works flawlessly, great work guys!

Hi Olivier. Sorry it took so long — sometimes this is the nature of these things and why we usually don't mention specifics about scheduling, etc. – Rael Dornfest, on July 24, 2008 06:32

This sounds promising. I am just wondering why it was said to be due 6 months ago? – Olivier Gourment, on July 24, 2008 02:04

I don't think it's fully documented anywhere.. But I know you can use
@reminder July 13 4:30pm (to specify exact times)
and
@reminder X hours prior (or any relative time like minutes or days)

That's brilliant!

What syntax works with this? Or is there a link to a help page?

i.e. @reminder at 3pm, @reminder on Sunday etc.

One of the new features of Sandy is the "@reminder" tag, used like so

remind me to go to the dentist 8/24 10:30am @reminder 1 days prior

Is that why i can't add a new email address to my profile?

I click the link and get "Oops ....try later....antacids should have taken effect....

Good to know. Since the cookies are all taken up, have a cupcake.

Hi folks.

In the flurry of several threads related to this issue a few days ago, I managed to overlook this one. Things were set aright 3 days ago and Sandy should be reading and responding to your emails with her usual expediency.

Hi Rael, emailed the help alias separately but wanted to mention here as well, Sandy appears to have suddenly stopped working for me completely! Is there a system wide prob or is it just my account?

When she is working, Sandy is amazing.
Thx

I have the same problem with Orange UK too. Twitter is an ok work around for now but I'd much rather be directly interacting via sms with Sandy. – RichiRich, on June 15, 2008 22:09
