    UPDATE for May 19th, 2008 — Jott multi-word tags + Jott email reply settings in I want Sandy. Last reply on July 02, 2008 17:38.

    Howdy,

    Just one of the various tweaks and twiddles I've been working on is today's fix for the Sandy jotters [http://iwantsandy.com/help/jott] among you.

    =====

    TWEAKED: Support for jotting multi-word special tags

    Jott [http://iwantsandy.com/help/jott] to Sandy? If so, you've no doubt run into an issue jotting Sandy multi-word (or multi-word-sounding) tags like @todo, @noreminder, and @noreply. "Remind me to change the oil in the car tag with to-do" turned what should have been @todo into @to @do. "Remember to consider that offer on Monday @noreminder" ended up being tagged as @no @reminder.

    We worked with Sandy over the weekend to recognize and re-assemble those multi-word tags for you on the fly. Now whenever you jott "...tag with to-do," @todo is what you'll get. And the same goes for: "no reminder," "no reply," etc.

    =====

    NEW: Turn Sandy's email replies to your jotts on or off

    Prefer Sandy not email a reply to each and every one of your jotts? No problem! Turn Sandy's email replies to your jotts on or off at http://iwantsandy.com/settings/jott#r... .

    Please note that we've asked Sandy _not_ to email a reply by default to avoid any unnecessary email cluttering your inbox. Feel free, however, to go ahead and turn email replies back on if you prefer.

    Remember too that you can explicitly ask Sandy not to reply — on a jott by jott basis — by saying "tag with no-reply." And if you have Sandy's jott email replies turned off but would like an email reply to one jott in particular, just say "tag with reply."

    To get Jott and Sandy talking, visit: http://iwantsandy.com/settings/jott

    =====

    Enjoy!

    Creating lists through Jott? in I want Sandy. Last reply on April 23, 2008 16:39.

    Is it possible to create a list with Sandy via Jott? All of my attempts end up as notes and not lists. Something like the following would be very useful:

    "Remember list groceries. Items eggs and butter and cheese"

    Server error message when Jotting to Sandy in I want Sandy. Last reply on June 25, 2008 02:04.

    I always get a server error when Jotting to IwantSandy from my phone. Jott recognizes Sandy as an addressee, and says "Got it" after I finish dictating. I also get an SMS from Jott with the transcribed message, so that part seems to work. However, Sandy never gets the message, and the SMS from Jott says "server experienced an error" right below the message to Sandy.

    No problem when I email directly to Sandy, though. So what's the problem?

    Jott Feeds + Email + Mailbucket + Iwantsandy = daily digest in I want Sandy. Last reply on June 09, 2008 12:43.

    I have finally found a way to get my full daily digest to me from my phone and its now read to me!

    If you are already using www.jott.com you might know of the new jott my feeds where you can have RSS feeds read to you. Currently i have my daily digest sent to my email every morning. But that does not help me if im not near a pc. so if i could turn my email from sandy into an rss then i could make my daily digest email an rss.

    so what you need to do is tell sandy to send a daily digest to your email every day. then create a filter to forward that email to xxxxx@mailbucket.org and have your news reader pick it up at mailbucket.org/xxxxx.xml (where you choose xxxxx, having checked that it's not already in use).

    so now your daily digest is made into an rss at mailbucket.org/xxxxx

    go to www.jott.com and create a new jott feed. and in the feed url put http://mailbucket.org/xxxxx.xml

    hope this helps anyone

    Nothing from Twitter is getting to Sandy in I want Sandy. Last reply on June 07, 2008 19:03.

    I can log in to Twitter; I follow Sandy and she follows me. If I send Sandy a direct message from Twitter (e.g., "d s remember this test twitter today @reply") I expect the following to happen:

    1. I should get a reply via SMS from Sandy saying "I've scheduled this for you: "#1 Thu, 3/6 This test twitter"

    2. I should see an appointment for today on my Your Stuff page, "Thursday 3/6, This test twitter"

    But nothing happens! I can see my sent message in my Twitter Direct Messages SENT Box, and that's it. I have Twitter tweets turned on in my Sandy preferences, and if I press the TEST button on the Sandy preferences page I get the SUCCESS tweet on my phone as an SMS message and I see it in my twitter DM inbox.

    Sandy turns todos into appointments in I want Sandy. Last reply on June 02, 2008 20:00.

    Here is what Jott sent to Sandy:

    "Remind me about Brendon's birthday present being mailed. Tag with To-Do."

    Here is what Sandy got:

    "I got: Brendon's birthday present being mailed. (Mon, 6/2/2008 7:00am) @todo"

    My problem is Sandy made my todo into an appointment (I sent this on 6/2 2:30 am). How can I get Sandy to quit adding a start datetime? I just want a todo.

    I'd like to know if Sandy can send an SMS of the lookup results. in I want Sandy. Last reply on May 29, 2008 21:24.

    I'm a David Allen student, meaning I'm trying to organize my life based on his Getting Things Done books. One of the key aspects of this is getting reminders of todo items at the appropriate times. (Like items to pick up at the store when I am at the store.) Its difficult to always have the lists on you, but if sandy could text me my grocery list by replying to a jott saying "lookup @grocery @sms" it would help me tremendously. Currently, sandy thinks this is just another search parameter. Should be pretty easy to implement, she just needs a way of distinguishing a reply method from a typical tag.

    How to synchronize Sandy with google calendar/gmail or Thunderbird/lightning in I want Sandy. Last reply on May 08, 2008 17:35.

    I am currently using google calendar/gmail as my core calendar and email applications. For off-line use I have synchronized these with Mozilla's Thunderbird w/lightning plug-in. I like Sandy but would like to sync it with these other apps so there is one master calendar, task list, alerts. Sandy would be the app which notifies me and how would often get updates into the system (e.g., "remind me of ..."). As an aside I have Jott synchronized to google calendar which is cool -- it would be nicer to synch Jott to Sandy.

    How to use @ tags with Jott in I want Sandy. Last reply on May 19, 2008 22:10.

    How to configure reminders with Jott:

    I'd like to be able to use @sms, @email etc. tags when I send reminders to Sandy via Jott. The problem seems to be that Jott transcribes the @ as "at" and Sandy doesn't pick up on them as @ signs.

    Basically this means that if I want to use Jott to remind myself of something happening later (via Sandy), then I have to configure Sandy to send sms reminders about everything.

    Does anyone have a work-around?

    How do I use Jott to add a "todo" tag? in I want Sandy. Last reply on May 19, 2008 22:06.

    I want to use Jott to add a "to-do" item, but when I say "tag with to-do", Jott changes it to "tag with To Do" and Sandy interprets it as "@to @do"

    Can Jott integrate with Google SMS? in Jott.

    I currently use Jott to, among other things, get answers from Mosio. But it seems in many cases Google SMS is a better alternative to Mosio. Is there any way I can integrate Google SMS with Jott?
    Ideal scenario: I call Jott.
    "Who do you want to Jott?" --Google--
    "Beep" -- Edgar Allen Poe birthday
    ...
    And Google SMS sends me the answer through Jott.
    I can't add Google SMS to my contacts because its number has only 6 digits; Jott needs ten.

    Jotting to Sandy... Help with Jott. in I want Sandy. Last reply on May 09, 2008 00:51.

    Is there a help list for folks who want to use Jott with I want Sandy? For instance... I have been able to post a reminder. But how might I tag a todo when using Jott? Also, if I ask sandy to remember something for me, how might I ask her to retrieve that information for me?

    Thanks... dss

    Concatenate @to @do, @to do (esp. useful for Jott) in I want Sandy. Last reply on April 15, 2008 14:27.

    When I Jott myself a todo, it rather frequently interprets "tag with todo" as "tag with to do", which gets me a remember tagged with @to and @do. This falls off my daily listing and pretty rarely shows up when I want it to.

    I have also mis-typed and entered "@to do" by mistake.

    Yes, I can bypass Jott's helpfulness in this regard by tagging as "tee oh dee oh", but that makes me sound like an idiot when I'm asking my virtual secretary for appointments.

    It might be a nice helpful feature if Sandy automatically concatenated tag requests which separate or hyphenate "to" and "do" into, simply, "@todo." That would fix Jott as well as general stupidity (or at least make some headway against it).

    Mileage Log for Sandy in I want Sandy. Last reply on May 08, 2008 03:27.

    I love how Sandy handles my Jotts. I would love it if Sandy could handle mileage logs dictated from Jott. For example, when leaving a destination I could dictate the date, current location, destination, and odometer mileage, and when I arrive at my destination I could dictate my new odometer reading and Sandy could update an ongoing mileage log with the total miles and details.

    Create shared reminders in Sandy from Jott in I want Sandy.

    Is there any way to use jott to create reminders for groups in Sandy? For instance, I want to create a shared reminder in Sandy with my team-mates. they are already contacts in the sandy interface and we can create shared items through e-mail. I can't seem to figure out a way to make this work from Jott.

    I'd like to be able to reply to Sandy with my mobile. I already have 2 email addresses (work and home) configured, so she won't let me set it up.

    Is it possible to default accepting messages from the mobile you send to?
