Creating a todo with a voice phone call
Weightlifter Charles Staley points out a new way to create a new todo in Gootodo - by voice, over the phone, via Jott.com :
"...when you call in your personalized Jott 800-number, you'll hear 'Who do you want to Jott?'"
"You answer 'To Do.' Then you speak whatever it is you'd like to add to your to-do list, and within 2-3 minutes, it'll be there on your GooToDo to-do."
Great discovery! Another way that Jott is being integrated with other awesome apps! I've seen similar approaches such as a Jott/Vitalist or Jott/RTM(remember the milk) combos. I think I've also seen a Jott/30boxes combo. I think the GTD approach with Jott has to be the best use by far. Once again, great work!
In my experience, Jott isn't very usable.
Half the time it doesn't understand who I'm trying to Jott, and the other half it doesn't get my note correct, rendering the service useless.
From my experience, the more I've used Jott, the better the transcription becomes. I created a jott the other day and it actually transcribed the proper nouns! Capital letters and spelling! As for your contacts, there are ways you can set your contacts to sound a specific way so you can narrow your search. OR you can say the first name and it gives you a list of people under that first name. Easy fixes....give it a second....third...or fourth chance!
