\"pingme-reminder-service.png\"Don’t worry, my husband doesn’t need this service; I’ve got it covered! PingMe.com<\/a> is a free reminder system that reminds me of an advancement on the Outlook calendar function. I typically set up Outlook “reminders” for everything ranging from “follow up on Lakeline listing” to “email April” but get irritated that I can’t direct it to my phone or to my Yahoo account.<\/p>\n

So, if you don’t get nagged enough from your wife (or children if you are<\/strong> the wife), here’s how PingMe works:<\/em><\/p>\n

1. Create a ping\/ name your task.<\/strong> For example, “Clip Toenails.” Whatever, you know you forget. You’ll also note if this is a recurring task or not.<\/p>\n

2. Determine the pestering function.<\/strong> This is how often you would like to ping yourself until you’ve told PingMe you’ve completed the task. “Clip Toenails” is important, but I would probably set the pester to go off every 30 minutes in case we’re on a date or something… I’ll get to it.<\/p>\n

Come to think of it, this could be a great “oh I have to go” interrupter making your phone ring mid-meeting… just act important and walk away from the encyclopedia salesperson (you’ve got an important pretend call to tend to)!<\/p>\n

3. Select a target.<\/strong> You can assign places for your reminder to go- your work email, your cell phone, wherever. For my reminder to “clip toenails,” I would probably have it remind my phone; it’s a pretty important task.<\/p>\n

3. Assign a Tag.<\/strong> Like in blogging, this organization will help you to sort through your to do reminders in an orderly fashion.<\/p>\n

4. Save, creating a sticky note.<\/strong> PingMe will email to your designated location your desired task reminder. But hey PingMe<\/a>, just because I say you should remind me of something doesn’t make you the boss of me. Got it?<\/p>\n

So, consider this<\/strong> your reminder to go sign up for PingMe. Do it now. Do it now. Do it now. >Ping complete.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
