Jott your reminders and ideas
If you are like me, your best ideas come when you are unable to grab a pen and write them down. My memory isn’t as good as it use to be. Whenever I get this great idea that I’m sure I’ll never forget, I usually only remember that it WAS a great idea.
One company has come to my rescue. http://jott.com is a service that you set up with your cell phone. You can call in and leave voice messages. These messages are then emailed and/or texted to you or anyone else you choose.
This voice-to-text service is remarkably accurate, even with my Yankee infected Texican accent. You can’t leave long messages, but you can leave a message that’s long enough to remind you of your fabulous idea.
Now, all I need is a water-proof cell phone or voice recorder. My best ideas still come in the shower. I have been taking my cell phone into the bathroom with me. Usually I can remember my brilliant idea for a few minutes after I leave the shower.
Try Jott and let me know how you like it. If you have other great ideas for capturing those flashes of brilliance, please leave a comment.
Write on,
Lynn Jordan
Nice writing style. I look forward to reading more in the future.
I must be honest, Lynn …
And I have a confession. I haven’t yet figured out how to retrieve voice messages from my darned cell phone! Jott may have to be a technology that I’ll just have to put on the back burner.
Thanks for sharing the info, though.
