Oh, I sooo need this!

This is a personal email bot that reminds you of things via email, blackberry, i phone, etc.


Squeeze more productivity out of your current system.
I'm not here to yank you out of the organizing system you already know and love (or hate). I'll help you use your system better. It doesn't matter if you're a BlackBerry addict, a Google Calendar devotee, a paper calendar user, or your to-do list is recorded on the backs of receipts. Find out more »
Time-shift your email until you’re ready for it.
Many people use their email inboxes as dynamic to-do lists, hoping that by keeping stuff "at the top" it will stay "top of mind." Send those emails to me with the date you'd like them returned, and I'll pass them back to you right when you need them. Find out more »
“Ok, this is really, really cool. iwantsandy.com offers a free personal assistant system that works by email. Need to be reminded to pick up your dry cleaning at 3:00? Send an email to your personal "Sandy" address and "she" will send you a reminder at that time. Need to add an item to a task list? Just email it and it will be added. Add the "@weekly" tag and you can get a weekly reminder. You can also get a daily email with tasks for the day. You can interact with Sandy through email, the web or even SMS text messages. The number of possibilities is huge.”



Don’t sweat (or forget) the small stuff.
Some details are too small or short-term to make it into your organizing system. But that doesn't make them any less important. Let me remember those ephemeral tasks that are the easiest to forget.

I'll remind you to feed the meter, take your vitamins, or put your wet laundry in the dryer. Find out more »
Get reminders wherever you are.
No matter how far you are from your computer, I'm always close at hand. I can send reminders by email to your BlackBerry, Palm, or iPhone, or text you on your cell phone. Find out more »

Here's the welcome letter from Sandy -

Hello, Mood4amelody!

I'm Sandy -- thank you for bringing me on as your personal email
assistant. My job is to help you use email more productively to keep track of
life's daily details.

By sending email to the personal address I've set up for you,
losgqlyf@************x.iwantsandy.com (or Cc'ing me on email you send to
someone else), you can have me remember things for you and remind you
about them so you stay on time and on track.

I understand a simple shorthand that feels natural to read and write.

To have me remember something for you, start a sentence with "remember"
or "remind" like this:

> Remember that I lent our Pride and Prejudice DVD to Mike

Mention a date or time and I will put it on the calendar and email you
a reminder (and/or send a text message to your cellphone) when the time
comes. I understand a number of date and time notations, for example:

> Remind me about yoga class on Friday at 8am
> Remember to pick up dry cleaning in 3 days

I'll remind you 15 minutes ahead of time (or at 7am if you haven't
specified a time).

Simple, huh?

Let's give it a whirl right now! Try asking me to remind you about
something -- maybe to get back in touch with a friend or to thank someone
for something nice they did? Email me with:

> Remind me to [thing to remind you about] in 1 minute

Looking forward to hearing from you,

Sandy

PS. You can also see everything I'm remembering for you on my Web site
at http://iwantsandy.com/. (When you log in for the first time you'll
be asked to set up a password.)

For help, hints, power moves, and nifty examples, visit my online help
system at http://iwantsandy.com/help or just send me email with "help"
in the subject.

PPS. I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the legal stuff. By emailing
losgqlyf@*********xx.iwantsandy.com or logging in to
http://iwantsandy.com, you confirm that you have read, understood, and
agree to the terms of use at http://iwantsandy.com/tou and privacy
policy at http://iwantsandy.com/privacy.
