is support email the same as bug report? Love the concept of the product, but can't get it to work (even though it seems remarkably simple)....

Okay, going with your 'nice enough' approach, it would have been 'nicer' if their CEO (as you suggest) were to have surveyed the landscape a little before dumping a blog link on it. I'm not saying that they are evil, just spammers fer chrissake. And their app is an interesting little niche product, and will probably find a nice audience. It has high redundancy and low automation, so as a productivity application they could have waited for some of the other ideas mentioned here, like voice recognition, auto tagging/organization, better relationships between the number and email accounts (like rollovers, one to manys, etc.)And most of all, how about a clearly stated privacy policy that tells me that they aren't farming phone numbers and email addresses? Nowhere in their registration process is it shown, and it's not even there after you sign up. It makes ya wonder...

Why is everyone burrying hrbrendan? He's the owner of BrainCast, right? Therefore, his voice would be the closest to the source of this product as you can get. I would think anything he puts in the comments here (that is useful, anyway), should be dugg. (At the time of this comment, his post above me is -1)

while spammy, this at least tells you something about the system. why on earth is there no faq or info on the damn site? wants me to give phone numbers tied to email addresses? advertising targets and epending - no thanks.

From the BrainCast website:" * BrainCast does not now and will not in the future share these or any email addresses for marketing or any other purpose."P.S.: All the posts and digs of BrainCast users are 100% in compliance with the Digg "Terms of use", as far as I can see. If there are any unwritten rules that have been violated, then maybe now would be a good time to start writing them down.

Commute, lunch, grocery store ... all places where you can use the cell phone to jot down ideas. Also, I get my best ideas in the shower, but the note paper always gets wet, ... well that's a stretch ;-)

I checked my BrainCast account today and already there are some new improvements to the service, including more explanations of how to properly enter data into the fields, as well as stating that no information entered would be used for marketing purposes.I have been using this company's VOIP service for some time now and can attest that they have never used the information they collect for any marketing purposes nor do they sell this information to other companies. I would know as one of the e-mail addresses I use is strictly used for communications with their company. I have never received any e-mail to that account other than from the company itself (and only in response to either a request for information or from the announcement e-mails that I signed up to receive).
