useful cell phone services

[Ken Meyer]

Here's an interesting article, ideas to get more out of your cell phone. Some of the services are free. I'm trying out Jott, it lets you create a reminder to yourself by using voice recognition and then it sends you an email. It takes just a minute to set up, I used it a couple of times today.

Here's the story http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/03/technology/personaltech/03basics.html?em&ex=1207454400&en=93fa48333426e0ab&ei=5087%0A

Speaking of reminders, I carry a small note pad everywhere I go. I jot stuff down as it comes to mind. It's mostly stuff I want to research on the computer. It helps very much.

As for my phone, I have a free hotmail email account on it. My business email automatically forwards a copy of every incoming email so I can get that on the run too.

When I finish an inspection report, obviously I send it to the client right away. I also started sending the same email with the report attached to my hotmail account. This way, a client can call me anytime, and no matter where I am I can sent the report again from my cell phone. It happened twice already.
