Announcing Jott Beta 2!

Dear Jotters,

We have just rolled out a much improved version of Jott.  There are small changes and big ones.  If you haven’t given Jott a try recently, this release makes it worth your while.  Handy link:  http://www.jott.com

Highlights

  • Just Jott. Jott creates email, text and instant audio messages completely hands free.  No more driving with your knees as you type (please!).  With V2, you simply Jott — to yourself, other people, or groups.  This means there is a change in our voice menu:  we simply ask “Who do you want to Jott?”... For a jott to yourself, just say “Myself”.

 

  • As for Groups...  Working late?  Jott “family”.  Has the soccer game shifted to another location?  Jott “Soccer Team”.  Flight delayed?  Jott “The office”.  A little late filling the tank?  Jott “carpool”.  With V2, simply say the name of a group you’ve created, say your Jott, and you’re done.  We automatically convert your voice to text, and deliver your message in email and/or text.

 

  • Contact import.  We now have a tool which makes contact importing trivial.  It works with Outlook, Gmail, AOL, Yahoo, Hotmail and others.  Having your contact list up to date unlocks the power of Jott; it’s a voice powered address book at the other end of a simple phone call.

 

  • Better User Interface.  We’re fanatical about simplicity, and we think our new web inbox is both easy to use, and keeps your jotts better organized.

 

  • Voices.  This is a cool new place on jott.com.  We think voice has a lot of richness beyond text, and this is a starting point for us to get both product feedback, and to let people express themselves.  We’re keeping it Jott simple to start, so check it out here:  http://www.jott.com/voices.aspx

 

  • Access for Canadian customers.  We’ve received many, many requests for this.   We now have it.  Just dial (647) 724 5814.


OK, enough for now.  Quick tours of all of this are at http://www.jott.com/jottinaction.aspx.

Thanks for your business and spread the word!
