Use Jott to Keep a Medical Diary

1:03AM April 12, 2008 | Kevin Purdy

Web marketer and migraine sufferer Scott Clark is tracking all the daily variables—food, environment, activity, and the like—that surround his attacks with a migraine diary, and he’s found text-to-speech services like Jott (original post) are the best hassle-free tool for the job. Not only will Jott (or ReQall or most similar systems) automatically record the date and time of the entries, but it’s always accessible by cell phone, and one can create a dedicated “inbox” for migraines to separate the diary from productivity-related uses. For anyone looking to track a diet, health issue, or other things that happen away from the desk, it’s worth looking into. Photo by robtxgal. Migraine Diary Creation using Jott [Site Creations]
