Archiving Text Messages
May 13, 2008Just came across this great idea on Twitter– using Jott to archive your text messages! For a long time now you’ve had a record of text messages you send using Jott, but since we implemented being able to text message your Jott account, now you can forward text messages others send you (not using Jott). Here’s how to do it:
1) Create a list on the website for all your archived messages, for example: Texts.
2) Select the forward option on your text message
3) Insert the name of the list you created, which in our example is Texts, in front of the message you are archiving.
4) Send to 40101
That might have been my tweet. I am still using it to archive my text mssgs. This has been a sanity saver for me. I always hated having to double check all txt mssgs b4 erasing them and i still ended up erasing the occasional important txt.
BTW, I don’t know what I’d do without Jott.
Thank you Jott team!

Can you give more detail on how to forward texts from my phone to my jott acct? I’m not too computer saavy and following the steps above is not working for me. I know I’m not doing something right.
Thanks.
