If you’ve ever wished your journal could also double as a party-planning headquarters, social hub, and just general chaos distributor… well, Lola has some really good news for you.

This week inside jot , Lola got her hands on our brand-new Address Book + Tagging Feature , and—predictably—used it to organise something pink, dramatic, and aggressively on-brand.

Let’s break it down.

Step One: Lola Discovers She Has Friends

(i.e. jot’s Address Book Feature)

Lola has many strengths: optimism, resilience, a borderline concerning number of crushes.
One thing she does not have? Any form of organised contact list.

So when jot quietly released the Address Book , she reacted as though we’d handed her the emotional equivalent of a tax refund.

Now, inside her journal, she can add her friends’:

  • Names

  • Emails

  • Numbers

  • Addresses (mostly for sending apology cupcakes)

  • Notes (“Leslie can’t be trusted with glitter”)

  • Tags (“party people,” “secret keepers,” “people who will destroy me”)

And, in typical Lola fashion, she filled the thing immediately .

Step Two: The Pink Party Heard ‘Round the Worldd

(i.e. tagging friends directly in your journal entries)

Once her address book was fully populated (colour-coded, unnecessarily detailed, exceedingly neurotic), Lola used jot’s new @-mentioning feature to post something no one saw coming:

A party announcement inside her journal .

Lola's party post

Yes. You read that right.
Lola is now using her journal as an event-planning tool.
Honestly? Groundbreaking.

With jot’s new feature, you can:

Tag people directly in your private or shared entries
✨ Automatically pull their details from your Address Book
✨ Notify them (depending on your sharing settings)
✨ Create group posts, invites, lists, reminders…
✨ Or, you know, force everyone you know to dress in pink

It’s essentially the social diary experience we all deserve.

Step Three: JotBot Tries to Keep Up

We’d love to tell you that JotBot responded with something emotionally profound, like:
“What does the colour pink symbolise for you at this point in your life?”

But Lola didn’t ask JotBot for emotional insight this time.
She simply hit “post,” @-attacked eight innocent bystanders, and went on with her day.

No thoughts. Only action.
Which is exactly what jot is here for: supporting your inner emotional journey and your outer social spontaneity.

So… what can you do with jot’s new tagging feature?

  • Plan events

  • Share announcements

  • Make a list of people who owe you money

  • Create birthday reminders

  • Start a group journal

  • @ your ex (don’t do this)

  • @ your therapist (…also don’t do this unless you are ready to explain yourself)

  • Build a cute, digital, emotion-powered social universe

And yes—Lola is already planning the next event.
We’re seriously scared.
