Introduction


Being able to set reminders is a handy feature. I find myself setting reminders for just about everything, and this tool has served me well for a couple of years now.

When we're finished, we're going to have a nice reminder system that can be commanded using simple text messages:

  • Change tires – 11/11/13 @ 11a.m.: This will set a reminder to get my tires changed on November 11 at 11 a.m.

  • showme: This will list all pending reminders.

  • change tires – cancel: This will cancel the tire change reminder.

  • change tires – add 2501121212: This will add another person to my reminder.

This reminder system is simple, handy, and nice to keep around.
