The JottBlog Experiment

JottBlogging: Brought To You By The RealEstateShows.com Gang

JottBlogging? ...We have no idea if we coined this term or not... probably NOT. It's not important. We don't really care what it's called. We wanted to test out the use of Jott.com in creating a unique kind of blog content delivery. We like to think of it as "in the moment" blog posts.

Every post on this blog is being generated using Jott.com's voice transcription service. The transcription is not always 100% accurate, but we think it's close enough. The added benefit is that you get the voice that generated it included.

The Beautiful Thing About Jottblogging

Jott From Jeff Turner

This is marks the first time Jott has NOT been able to transcribe a message from me. Here is the message I received: [speech too fast, please listen] So, that means this is being transcribed by me. Bummer.

As, I listened, I realize my call quality was not good.

I’m sure that’s the real reason it could not transcribe properly. That’s not the point of this post, however. The point of this post is to update the blog and force some content to the search engines so that I can better test the new SiteNeighbors.com widget in the sidebar.  I was happy I could do it from my car… maximizing time is good. Wasting time is bad.

This didn’t work out the way I had hoped.

Jott Needs A Wordpress Plugin

Jott From Jeff Turner
Jott needs a Wordpress plugin. This is a cry out to either the folks at Jott or some developer out there or maybe just even a thought to myself. What really needs to be developed to make Jott more effective as a spontaneous blogging device is a plugin for Wordpress that automatically reformats the email that comes from Jott…

Jott Length Now 30 Seconds?

Jott From Jeff Turner
As I was reviewing the last Jott to draft post, I realized that the length of the Jott message was longer than their 15 second publicized message length. 30 seconds is longer than 15 seconds. Call me Mr. Obvious, but it’s still not long enough to act as a form of “podcast” for anything meaningful. An option they may want to consider is not offering transcription options for Jott’s in excess of a certain length. This new 30 second length seems more reasonable even for their original intended purpose.

Posting a Jott to draft mode.

Jott From Jeff Turner

Posting a Jott to draft mode. That’s what we are testing now. This is the first Jott that we’ve set to post to draft mode, and then we’ll see if this works. wish us luck.

[We did this test because many have asked whether this would be possible. It is. Steve changed the config file for Postie and it worked perfectly. Jott to draft, if nothing else, is a great way to get Blog ideas into a place where you can work on them later.]

Jott voices has made me think about uses for grandcentral.com If you haven’t seen Jotts new voices capability go to jott.com and take a look, but it makes me think that there are some interesting ways to use voices mail to E-mail for testimonials at customer service issues.

Jott From Jeff Turner on Thursday, 3/29/2007 7:44 AM
Traffic is the reason why I think Jott blogging has got to be something worth paying attention to. As soon as you get past the 15 second limit, this is the way to make use of time like this where I am stuck in traffic on the 405 south.

Robert Scoble stopped by in a Twitter message yesterday to the Jott blog experiment. As a Robert Scoble fan I was pretty darn pleased.
