Date dyslexia,

I was chatting to Anneli and she mentioned how she misses things because dates/times arrive to her but they don't get into her diary ( the problem being is that it is everywere).

I thought about an application that would fish for dates in your email as it arrived and then tried to figure out where it should go in your diary. ( Dinner tuesday - would make a good guess then let you change it).

Problem we both identified was the idea of doing this with sound - people tell you on the phone or in person when you don't have a version near you.

Perhaps a printable version which could use image recognition from photo capture to read back modifications you made to the paper version.

Just noticed the new version of mac Mail will fish for dates out of your mail for you.
