JOTT!!

features — Paul Griffin Petty on May 23, 2008

Don’t know what JOTT is? Well, get a clue: http://jott.com, if you can’t wait or aren’t sure you care … JOTT is a voice recognition service. You configure to recognize your phone number so that JOTT, it self; as well as other third party applications (which JOTT calls Links) can also accept speech to text publishing.

That’s significant, to say the least. Now that everywhereToDos.com is JOTT linkable; you can call JOTT’s 800 number, and dictate a ToDo. Speech to text ToDos!!

Here’s what you do … provided you have a JOTT account:

  1. Login to everywhereToDos
  2. Login to JOTT (or register)
  3. Click Add Links on the right hand side of the page
  4. Select Custom
  5. You should see three fields (and a checkbox)
  6. Change the word “Custom” in the first field called “Link Name” to something like “To Do”
  7. Set the Setup URL: http://everywheretodos.com/todo/preferences.php?jott_setup=1
  8. Set the Link URL: http://everywheretodos.com/todo/jott.php
  9. Click Save
  10. You’ll end up on everywhereToDos (on the preferences page)
  11. You’re done

It’s slightly cumbersome, but worth the small hassle.

Look for a streamlining of the setup in the future.

And if you don’t JOTT yet; go sign up — it’s free & as far as getting things done goes, this is the way to track your tasks when you’re not at a computer, PDA, or internet enabled mobile device.
