Default Never forget anything again

Just recently I started using the services at I Want Sandy and I love it! Basically, Sandy is your personal assistant that will remind you via email or text message of anything you want. Personally, I love the fact that she sends you text messages because you can't miss the reminders like you would if you weren't constantly checking your email or daily planner. And it's super easy to set up. All you have to do is send the program an email or log-in to the website and type in a short message and it guesses what you want. You can set it up so she'll send you a message 15 min, 30 min, 1 day, etc. before so you won't forget.

Right now I've been using it to remember appointments and meetings with friends but you can use it to remind you of anything - pick up cheese at the grocery store, go to the gym, birthdays, etc.

Check here for a list of examples of ways to use it.

Default i heart sandy!

@lpkitten: i second that! i would forget to put on my pants if sandy didn't remind me! the text messages have saved me so many times. now that i have a mobile web device, it's even handier.

i find sandy to be helpful in reminding me of my long term personal goals, like my 2008 resolutions. i also make weekly and monthly resolutions and ask sandy to nudge me from time to time.

I just started using Google Calendar which I have alert me....but this sounds like it does quite a bit more. Good post. I learn so much from reading Wisebread.
