Chris Reed – aka The Ginger Monkey – has just put up this awesome post declaring his love for all things SpinVox and actually points to one of the posts from Big Talk as his inspiration!
Over to Chris:
“It’s a brilliantly simple tool: instead of you having to listen to a voicemail, Spinvox converts that voicemail to text, and then (err) texts it to you… It’s a total godsend if you’re in an important meeting and you’re not sure whether the call coming in is more or less important than that meeting. A quick glance at the screen once it arrives answers that question. Nice.
Various friends and family have tried to trick the technology, and only barely succeeded. I’m now a fan – a bit like Sky+. Before you use it you don’t know how useful it is. After you use it, you don’t want to go back to your old ways.”
‘Sky+’ for anyone reading not from the UK is the the British equivalent of what you might know as TiVo. Which to my mind (as well as Chris’), is an awesome invention and one that SpinVox has no qualms whatsoever being compared to on the scale of usefulness.
SpinVox Rocks you see.
We think it does.
Chris thinks it does.
What about you?
