Voice-activated todos (and redating) with ReQall

Louis Beauregard, president of Convivio, sends in "a cool extension to your gootodo app (which BTW is really great)":

1. Leave voice note to myself using the ReQall app on my iphone (free, and easy). I make sure to include the key words "Today", "Tomorrow" or "Next Month" or a day of the week at the top of my message (you choose the key words you want to implement).

2. By default, ReQall app creates a perfect transcription of my voice note and sends it to me in an email automatically.

3. Rule in Apple Mail looks for the key word in the transcript's email subject line and sends the note to the appropriate day in gootodo (e.g. <keyword>@gootodo.com)

4. VoilĂ ! A new task is added to the appropriate day in my todo list using voice recognition... look mom, no typing!

Thanks, Louis!
