Alexa, Remind Me To Finish This Blog Post In 10 Minutes
Amazon Echo owners, Alexa is getting some new skills to help you stay on top of your GTD.
Specifically, Amazon announced Alexa will now be able to recognize commands to set reminders and named timers, reports our friends at Mashable.
To set a reminder, simply explain to Alexa what you need to do and when.
For example, I just said, “Alexa, remind me to finish this blog post in 10 minutes.” Alexa then had to ask me in how long, so much for telling Alexa the reminder in one fell swoop.
I’ll likely be finished with this blog post in less than 10 minutes, so I won’t be able to tell you if it worked or not.
But I did want you Echo/Tap/etc. owners to know this new “skill” was available. Now in the U.S., and rolling out to Germany and the UK in the next several weeks.
