Remember Holiday Gift Ideas Easily with Jott

We have all been driving around or standing in line somewhere during the holidays and thought of a good gift idea for someone on our shopping list. The problem is that it’s not always safe or convenient to write the names of the items down.

A new service called Jott allows you to sign up for a free service that enables voice activated gifting. The service works by calling a toll free number from your phone and saying Amazon when prompted then the name of the product you want to remember.

The Jott service then looks for products with the name you said and emails you a list of the most relevant products on Amazon that matches what you asked for. "We are focused on delivering intuitive voice applications in combination with companies and services our customers already know, trust, and love," commented Jott Networks CEO John Pollard. "Using your voice to remember products that you want to buy on Amazon.com is simple and efficient -- the things our customers tell us they want and need to help balance their busy lives."
