I don't need the details of these but one method is setting up Microsoft Office calendar to remind you every day.

Hi Dolphin - I click on "what's new" every day to see what's on the forum and I expect one of the Vivint threads to be there to remind me. If it isn't I hope I will remember to boost it!

The Facebook reminder has been extremely helpful for me.

So far we're first in our region. We need everybody who voted today to vote every single day. This is a marathon, not a sprint. The tortoise will beat the hare. (This means, everyone voting every day!)

So please set up some kind of reminder if you haven't already.

Very good point! And thanks for creating a Vivint signature, it will really help spread the word.

What, we have 75 votes/day?!

Not sure how I would use all that, take me 1/2 the day to do it also?

Hi GG - it's at the top of the page whenever you're on the forums. In the big blue bar across the top of the page, there's a paler blue bar with buttons that read, from the left, "Home, Forum, Wiki, Blogs, What's New" etc.

It's a very handy button - each time you come back to the forum you can see the most recent posts, in order of recency.

No, we've got one vote a day for 75 days (phew!).

Thanks for making yourself a signature, it will really help!

I got a message from WPI about the contest that suggested setting up a daily reminder on your phone, which is a good idea.
