Testing your reQall

A few colleagues and I were working on a paper on user-centered design and I found that one of the gurus of UCD or HCI for that matter, Donald Norman, was involved with this new startup called reQall.com. It appears that reQall (that is how they spell the name, not my bad typing) allows a person to record their todos and reminders through their iPhone and it will keep you on track with reminders via different communication channels. Kind of the "virtual nag", somehow that appeals to me although I am sure it has the propensity to become incredibly annoying. So, I signed up and I will download the iPhone app (probably will cost me some of my precious iTunes Christmas money, but its all in the name of science).

Only time and utility will tell...oops as I am writing this Entourage tells me there is a reminder for the following tasks...

Okay, so perhaps it is already annoying...
