Comments on: Dial2Do: Speak your Twitters, e-mails, SMS messages and more

In about six weeks, you'll be able to Twitter while driving using Dial2Go's mobile phone platform for dictating commands to various Web services.

@longhornKY, I see your point. But if you're driving, there's really no other option than speech-to-text. Like I said in the story, I can't recommend people distract themselves from driving with this service, but it does beat trying to do email on the keyboard while in traffic.

Hi Rafe, and thanks for the post. There is actually an option to import contacts from Outlook, Gmail or Jajah contact books with more to follow, so you can get going quickly.

We need to make it more obvious so thanks for the feedback - you need to go to the Contacts list and click the Import button.

Thanks, Ivan

I don't think import is what is needed. I have too many addressbooks here and there (mac, gmail, dial2do, jajah, plaxo, cordless, cell, you name it) and one need constant updating, creates duplicates and what not. It definitely limits the way I use both dial2do and jajah. Look at what plaxo has done with its sync points. I think they are a lot closer to what people need.
