Voice In Canada Flash Briefing #94
Hello again. Good morning, Good afternoon, Good evening. Whenever you’re listening to the flash briefing, hope you’re doing amazing.
And today I’ve got a couple of short little tips to give you. They actually relate to this past weekend, the Victoria Day long weekend.
As I mentioned in a previous flash briefing, one of the things that you can do with Alexa is ask her, “what are your new features?”
And I did that on the weekend and I discovered a couple of things that I just wanted to share with you.
The Victoria Day long weekend is a weekend where a lot of people will go camping for the first time.
You know, the nice weather is here. And people enjoy that. So Alexa was getting into the spirit and what I discovered is that you can now ask Alexa to tell you a story.
Specifically you can say, “Alexa, tell me a camping story” and you can check that out and she’s got quite the story actually.
And you can see if you like the story. The other thing that you can do is you can ask Alexa for barbecue jokes now. So “Alexa, tell me a barbecue joke”.
You can ask Alexa for barbecue jokes.
And again, she doesn’t have just one. She’s got quite a few. So if you like listening to Alexa’s jokes and you’re like her sense of humor and I’ll admit sometimes it’s a hit and miss for me with her jokes.
But if you like those, then have a discussion with her and ask her for a barbecue joke? And just finally to end off today, as I’d mentioned, I really appreciate the reviews that come in for the flash briefing.
It is because of you, the listeners that have basically helped this flash briefing to become the number one rated flash briefing in all of Canada.
Now, having said that I also get reviews in the states and one of the recent reviews on the Amazon.com website was from somebody by the name of Doug.
And I think I know who you are, Doug. There was no last initial, the last name, but Doug Writes “Fun and informative. Excellent tips on Voice Apps and how to get the most out of them”. So Doug, thanks very much.
I really appreciate that. And if you are so inclined and you would like to leave a review, they are very much appreciated.
Have a great day, and I’ll talk to you tomorrow.
