As you know, I’m a big fan of Jott (click here to view my review on what Jott does). Jott just released a new feature that really has my interest so I thought I’d share it with all of you. Jott Feeds lets you listen to your favorite news and RSS Feeds all from your phone! You can set Jott up so that when you call you can get all of your latest Twitter updates. You can also have Jott tell you the latest news on CNN, TechCrunch or any other website/blog you want! You literally set up Jott’s Feeds and with a press of a phone button, Jott will speak what you used to only be able to read!

I find this new feature incredible! How many times am I in my car and wondering what my friends’ latest updates on Twitter are? Or what Lifehacker has just posted? This is really an incredible feature and I’m glad Jott has added it.

So whatcha waiting for? Get your free account with Jott today and make sure you set up a Jott Feed for my blog (or click here and you’ll go directly to Jott!)

For those of you who are new to RSS and feeds, all you need to do is click on the orange icon (RSS) in the top right sidebar of my blog and you’ll get the link to my RSS feed. Simply copy that into your Jott Feed and you’ll always be caught up with Jeff McCord’s Blog! I’m literally just a phone call away!

Jott This: Writing My Blog with My Voice!

One of my goals is creating this blog is to discuss the moxiest, newest technology out there. Although Jott has been around for a little while, the services that Jott has recently added now have my attention. Once you’ve created a free account with Jott, all you have to do is call a toll-free number and speak whatever it is you wish to say clearly. You then have the option for Jott to transcribe what you say and send it to any of your contacts on email or now even Twitter.

They also just added cross functionality with WordPress, the software I use for my blog. I can literally call the Jott toll-free number next time there’s breaking news and within seconds, Jott will transcribe my voicemail into a new blog post for you to read. Moxie indeed!

Here’s an example of a call I just made to Jott:

“Hey guys I am using jott to write my new blog posts and I just wanted to say hello, this is very moxie.” Listen to Jeff’s Voicemail Here
