Jott Newsletter: April Edition

jott

Hi All,

It's been a busy month around Jott! We made some more changes to the website (many thanks for the feedback), released a new BlackBerry application, and won 2nd place in the Consumer Application Messaging category of the Emerging Tech Award at CTIA. We're also a promotional partner for a business contest with AllBusiness.com. For a quick debrief of all the action, read on…

Jott announces cure for "Terse Reply Syndrome"

If you are a BlackBerry user, chances are you've sent a reply to an email so short, it was considered rude (e.g. Good start, Needs work, Talk Monday). We're happy to announce the first and only BlackBerry Addict approved, E-Tech Awards 2nd place winning cure.

For those of you who have an 8100 (Pearl), 8300 (Curve), or 8800 model BlackBerry, you can now use Jott to reply to emails with just your voice. Point your BlackBerry browser to www.jott.com/bb, and download the Jott for BlackBerry application. It's easy to use, and integrates perfectly with how you use email today…you don't need to learn a new application.

For more information on Terse Reply Syndrome, and how Jott for BlackBerry can help, visit http://www.tersereplysyndrome.com. (Note: this is a parody starring some Jott employees.)

Website usability changes

First and foremost, thank you to everyone for the great suggestions and feedback about the new website. We made some changes we think you'll be happy with:

1) Multi-select
If you are on a PC, just hold down the "Control" button and click all the Jott messages you'd like to move at once. If you are on a Mac, hold down the "Shift" button. Multi-select makes for easy organizing.

2) "All Jotts" becomes "Inbox": this is obvious in retrospect.

3) View all your to-dos at once
We added an "All Lists" view, so you can easily see all of your lists in one place. Project management just got a little bit easier!

As always, we'd love to hear what you think… the good, the bad and everything in between.

Business contest with AllBusiness.com

Jott is going to be working with AllBusiness.com to promote the "BIG Business Contest" (www.bigbusinesscontest.com). We know a lot of you are small and medium sized business owners, so we'd encourage you to enter. Here's the pitch:

"You've built your team, leveraged your contacts, and honed your business skills. You've worked hard to get your business to where it is today. But you need completely different skills, knowledge and expertise to take your company to the next level. Enter the BIG Business Contest, sponsored by AllBusiness and Maui Millionaires, and win the chance to have world-class advice and mentoring to transform your business into a BIG Business success story…because there is nothing small about your business or your aspirations for the future. Enter today at: www.bigbusinesscontest.com"

The winner also gets a trip for two to Maui. We personally hope that one of you wins, and that you send us a Jott message while lounging on the beach.

That's it for this month! If you'd like to stay in touch with us until the next newsletter, check out the blog, become a fan of Jott on Facebook, or follow us on Twitter (and we'll follow you too!).

Cheers,
The Jott Team
