Adding numbers to your 3jam address book

Posted by andy, April 13th, 2006

I got a great email from a user who had some questions about adding people to his 3jam address book. I thought the question would be of interest to a lot of people, so I’m reposting it here:

Hi Andy,
 
I just read about 3jam on Treonauts and immediately signed up because it sounds like a great idea.  I just wanted to know if you could add multiple numbers to your address book from one text:
 
add john doe (123)456-7890; add mary jane (098)765-4321; add scooter somebody (123)555-1234, etc.
 
This would of course cut down a lot of time if possible.  If we are not able to do this for now however I think I read that you will be adding the capability to link/download/upload/sideload/whatever our current address books to a 3jam address book.
 
Thanks for the great innovation  and taking the next step to “simplicity” in our everyday lives.

We do not yet support the ability to add more than one person in a single text message, but this will be coming soon. We know it takes longer than is ideal right now, and are working to make it as easy as possible to add people. Our web interface will be available soon, which will have many cool and slick ways to get your contacts into 3jam. Beyond the web site we are also planning some other very cool ways to make it as easy as possible to use 3jam. If you have any ideas or suggestions that you’d like to see, leave a comment or email me. Thanks again to everyone for the great feedback. We’re just trying to make text messaging work better!
