ReQall for Free Reminders -- Dial2Do, Too
Nov. 21, 2009
ReQall is a free service that lets you send yourself email reminders that you don't have to type or email. You also don't use a calendar program. You call a toll-free number, tell the computer what you don't want to forget, and hang up. You have 30 seconds.
The software at the other end converts your message into text. Then it sends it to your email address.
They offer a premium service. They are good marketers. They want to make us dependent on the free service. Then they hope 20% will upgrade.
David Pogue has produced a clever 3-minute video on this service. He is the consumers' technology writer with the New York Times. He is an amusing fellow who makes technology simpler to understand.
I really like the video. It's low budget. Anyway, it looks like a low-budget video. It's silly. But it gets the benefit across. Take a look.
Don't use this service while you're driving. Pull over to the side of the road. (Also, eat plenty of green, leafy vegetables, stop smoking, and lose 10% of your weight . . . and keep it off.)

ReQall works, and so does Dial2Do which provides integration with Evernote and many other services. D2D is my pick, after having tried ReQall myself.www.dial2do.com
