It is certainly useful in a number of situations. If you are walking your dog and came up with an idea or recalled just the right thing to do, but will likely forget it by the time you come home or get to your laptop.

I don’t think Jott has gone far at all! I think it has helped MILLIONS of people out there, especially in the business AND busy world. A good first example would be this new law in Washington State that goes effect Jan. 1 2008, where people will get a secondary charge for using AND texting while driving. Now with Jott, you can use your hands free device to Jott! I think that’s going to work great in washington state and where ever driving and talking/texting applies.

Some i see think that Jott is just a waste of time and rather use pen and paper, but Jotting isn’t always about leaving yourself a note. Jotting allows communication to groups even! And as for my applications with Jott, I use it as a musicians tool. It helps me remember music when I’m not at my guitar. And I’m notorious for forgetting ideas! Seriously! haha

And I’m use Geoff R. knows about this…but it DOES work in Canada!

Anyway…great to see this awesome product in use! I’m really excited about the future of Jott, especially since they’ve landed a 4.5 Million loan to expand!

Happy Jotting!

We are playing around with another use… jott to blog. It’s an experiment.

I think that this type of technology truly is useful. It speeds up communication throughout our lives. I am concerned mainly with the accuracy and the range of use the service has(blog,memo,note,sms etc..). I searched around and ended up choosing a company called spinvox. http://www.spinvox.com Their conversions are very accurate and I can use their service for almost any imaginable application of voice conversion to text.

Jott is a really cool service, that has more use than they point out. As someone who doesn’t use all their minutes each month, I could basically text message people using only talk minutes.

Too bad it doesn’t work in Canada…

I wrote a post on a bunch of other techniques for taking note on the go.

I manage a sales team and I meet a lot of our customers everyday. As you might guess, each meeting results in a follow up either for me or one of my reports. I used to carry a notebook around and send notes/followups out in the evening. With Jott, I dont have to wait till the end of day to get these going. Granted, it was annoying to add my 6 direct reports as contacts, but once I did that – the returns are great. I have found this to be a perfect little business productivity tool.

Honestly, I think Jott is taking it a bit too far. I’d rather use a pen and paper any day. Yeah, I’m sure the service is mighty reliable, but, for me anyway, I’d rather just have myself only know my notes. Tadalist is about the extent of to-dos and notes.
