Do You Jott?
Are you feeling a little overwhelmed and unproductive? Feeling short on time? There’s a technology tool that can help you “stay on top of everything.” It’s called Jott and the main feature is your voice. That’s right, your voice. Here are some ways Jott can help you better manage your time.
1. Voice-to-Text Notes. Need to remember things when you are not close to your computer? Simply call Jott, dictate your message, and Jott will transcribe your message to text. When you get back to your computer, your notes will be available at Jott online.
2. To Do Lists. Short on time and without pen and paper? Call Jott and say the name of your list before leaving your message. Your lists will always be available online and waiting for you when you get back to your computer.
3. Reminders Via E-Mail & Text Message. Jott can remind you of important dates (like anniversaries, meetings, job interviews, etc.). Just call, leave your message, and Jott will send you an e-mail or a text message 15 minutes beforehand.
4. Group Messaging. Need to send messages to a larger group of people? Create groups for all your contacts (input all required data), call Jott, say your group's name, and then leave the message you want to sent to them. Once transcribed, Jott will send your message to everyone in the group via e-mail or text message. How efficient is that!
One more thing, Jott can interface with Outlook, iPhone, Blackberry, and iGoogle. You can also connect to many other favorite web sites. Imagine adding appointments to your Google calendar, and updating your blog with your voice all while out of the office! Jott also works with microblogging sites like Twitter and allows you to check prices on Amazon.com. All you need to do is make a phone call.So, how much does all this cost? Price plans range from free (yes, free) to $12.95/month. Click here for all Jott price plans.
