Here’s a post from the Innovation Tools Weblog, New tool for capturing your ideas:
“One of my areas of passion in recent years has been looking for tools that enable me to capture my ideas, any time, anywhere. Thanks to the Black Belt Productivity blog, I’ve just learned about a new tool called Jott, which looks really promising.”
Here’s how Jott works…
“It provides you with a toll-free (877) phone number, which you can program into your cell phone’s contacts. When your muse strikes, simply dial the number and dictate your idea. The Jott service transcribes your voice into text, and e-mails you the results (along with the audio file, in case there are any problems with recognizing your voice input). When you return to your office or home, your idea is waiting for you in digital form in your in-box, awaiting further development.”
But, as the Black belt Productivity post notes, that’s not all:
“On the website, you can add or import contacts. You can also organize the contacts into groups. Lets say you are running late for a meeting…stuck in traffic. You can dial Jott and when prompted, indicate that you want to contact your work group or another specific individual. Leave them a message, and Jott will send the memo to them. How cool is that!?!”
