He generally remembers that task only after he's stopped at the credit union a half a block away. my friend john reminds me that he’d like a reminder to drop off his library books while he’s walking past the library on his way to work.

I’m Ron, the company’s CEO and co-founder. It looks like people have a lot of different opinions about the service; even MobileCrunch itself , with you and John having different takes: http://mobilecrunch.com/2007/12/13/new-company-kwiry-helps-you-remember/) I realize that there are people out there like yourself who remember everything or always carry a pen/paper or smartphone with them, and kwiry might not be right for them. However what we’ve found is that a lot of people do forget things…. things like songs or restaurants your friends recommend at dinner, books you want to read, or stuff from your favorite magazine that you want to learn more about or buy online. kwiry uses the one device we always have on us to create reminders as soon as we find something we want to remember (smart phone users can email reminders to save@kwiry.com). When you get back to a computer (where you can surf in a full browser) you can access search results for your kwirys with one click from our website or your e-mail. We encourage everyone to try kwiry out before they form an opinion. I’m happy to answer any specific questions that aren’t covered in our FAQ by email at ronf@kwiry.com. Thanks. Hi Nick,

Typically,if I am without pen and paper and need to write something down or remember something I will text it to myself. I will definitely use this service. I know many others who text themselves reminders and I think we are the exact target for this service.
