How to create a log entry without going into JibberJobber (video) (7/26/10)
This really is one of the MOST exciting features in JibberJobber because, well, it helps keep you out of JibberJobber.
Doesn’t make sense?
Look, I’m not trying to get eyeballs to JibberJobber, like many of the other websites. I just want to provide a useful tool that helps you get the job done. I use JibberJobber all day long (it is my personal relationship manager), and I want to use it in a smart, effective, efficient way.
That’s why we came up with this new feature… in short, you can send an email to the JibberJobber system and have it become a log entry on one of your contacts.

There is a little icon on the bottom right that will allow you to view this in FULL SCREEN . (ALSO, you only need to watch to about 8:04… after that it repeats a bit… we’re cleaning this up now)
