Testing Jott

April 2nd, 2008 by ali

I’m testing out blogging via cellphone using Jott.com. It is supposed to transcribe your voice into text and then post it to Twitter, or WordPress, or Google Calendar, or a whole bunch of other services. It can send text message reminders to your cell, and e-mail reminders. You can use it to keep To Do list by just calling and dictating. You just can take an e-mail and send it to a group of people all at once, too. The only thing I’m not so sure about is that it real showing me (will show a link) to actually hear your message, if it supposed (posts) to your Blog, or Twitter, or whatever, and I’m not so sure I want my voice all over the internet. (There was a link here to listen to the message but I deleted it!)

It was fairly accurate with the transcription! I’m impressed. The only parts that were not right are bolded with the corrections in parenthesis.

    wow, that was actually quite impressive. however, i am less enthralled of the idea of randomly just voiceblogging. but the thought of a spoken word / podcast version of my blog has always interested me…

    I don’t think that I’ll use it to blog either. I wasn’t blessed with the gift of being able to say things just right off of the top of my head and have it turn out as a coherent post. I’m a lister/reviser type. It works really well with a To Do list and reminder system, though!

    I think you’d be great on a podcast!
