I have to admit that in this time and age, even with all the advantages technology provides, when it comes down to keeping track of pending items, errands and to-do-items, I tend to stay in the analog world (read pen and paper).
So I was very excited to read about a new smart phone app which seems to be tackling this problem in a very clever way by integrating the best aspects of disparate technologies such as Post-It notes, email, calendars, and voice for free! (with a Pro option available too)
It is called reQall and the way it works is that you call a free number to add “items” via your voice or text such as notes, appointments and memos. If using your voice, they use speech recognition software to transcribe your message into text so that based on your situation (time, location, etc.), the system can remind you of those items via email, SMS, IM or even a “phone shake”.
A very nice feature is that you can also share your account with other family members and friends, so they can enter reminders for you. Mmm, I wonder why wives love this feature so much…
