Two years ago someone called me at work and left a message that would change my life. The message itself wasn’t important — what was cool was that it emailed a copy of the voice mail to my inbox and I could listen to my phone call in iTunes (yeah, I know, not that high tech, but I’m easily amused).

Today, I found out that it works in reverse. If I call my voice mail it will read me my email. (And yes, I did spend the better part of my morning emailing myself personal affirmations and having the British lady read them back to me — “You are awesome!”). No more “reading” for me – I can communicate electronically as a complete illiterate!!
