I've previously used Jott to blog here. And I use it all the time to send e-mail reminders to myself.
It's a great service where you call a toll-free number, leave a voice message and they transcribe it for you and send it wherever you say you want it to go.
Well now you can use Jott the Vote to send messages to a presidential candidate. I think this is a wonderful idea. Now if you've just collected your prescriptions and are sick of healthcare costs, you can call your favorite candidate and give them an earful.
Thanks Jott for making it really easy to get a message to our future president - whichever one of the seventeen candidates that turns out to be!
Oh, and if Jott should get your message slightly wrong, be sure to let the folks at Misjott know!
I drove down to Connecticut this afternoon for my bike ride tomorrow. The organizers have done an awesome job marking the route. I drove around it after arriving and it looks challenging and fun.
You'll notice that I now have a Patient Blogger badge in my sidebar. I applied for this after reading Amy's great post about ethics. I hope this gives you some confidence that I work hard to write a blog that follows these rules.
Tomorrow I'm planning to try a little experiment in live blogging. Recently I signed up for a Jott account. Marston made me do it! This nifty web 2.0 application lets you send messages by calling a toll-free number and talking carefully. I've set it up so that I can Twitter and/or blog from my mobile phone.
So tomorrow during my bike ride I plan to use Jott to update Twitter on how things are going. I may also post to the blog during a rest in the ride. We'll see how well it works in real life.
The Diabetes Technology Blog is focused on using technology to life better with diabetes. I review: blood glucose monitors; continuous glucose monitor; blood sugar meters; diabetes software and living with diabetes.
About Me
Name: Bernard Farrell
Location: Massachusetts, United States
I was born in Ireland and now live in the US.
I have had Type 1 diabetes for over 35 years. I struggle with my blood sugar, the same as most people with diabetes.
I wear a Cozmo 1800 insulin pump and a Dexcom SEVEN CGM to track my blood glucose levels. I also take Symlin to help control my post-meal blood sugars.
I'm blessed by God, and every day brings the possibility of a cure.
