Many people are using wonderful free tools such as Jing (my favorite tool ever!) to create online presentations. Cueprompter is a quick and easy way to script your presentation so your “ums” and “wells” go away.

Task.fm: Free SMS and Email Reminders

The web is now full of helpful reminder systems. I like Task.fm because you can write the way you speak and it converts your note into a smart reminder, such as if you tell it to remind you about “my meeting with Scott Thursday at noon.” You can set reminders to come to you via text, email, twitter or a phone call.

The basic level is free, and the deluxe is less than $4 a month.

Want another reminder system? Try my old favorite, Jott.

Jott.com: No More Texting and Driving

Come on… be honest. Some of you still text and drive, right? Jott.com is the solution. Just dial a number on your phone, and a chipper voice asks, “Who do you want to Jott?” Say the name of a contact (or yourself), and Jott will take your message and convert it to text, plus attach the audio for the recipient’s listening pleasure. One of the attendees to my presentation called it “automated nagging.”

Jott has been one of my Beth Favorites for a couple of years now. It used to be free, which was crazy, and now they charge a very reasonable $3.95 a month for their most basic service. Well worth it. It integrates with all kinds of things — social media, great to-do list services, etc. Love it.
