Jott is a voice based online tool that we covered earlier this year. The basic premise is that you call a specified phone number, speak a message, and have it's transcribed and sent as text to your account on a service like Twitter, a Wordpress blog, a Tumblr blog, or even to Yahoo Groups.

Now Jott officially supports Google Calendar. Users will now have the ability to speak into the system, specify a Google Calendar, and have Jott drop in an appointment. Great for on the go and have to set something up ASAP so you don't forget!

Jott is currently in public beta.

But he quickly realized that he could use the iPhone interface as a starting point and go in different directions. For example, 16 icons on the program launcher doesn't take you very far when you can install hundreds of programs. So the bottom four buttons will turn from program launch buttons into page flipping buttons, giving you a total of 48 buttons to press for applications.
