The good thing is that I have at least 4 months to figure out what to do with the Echo I ordered. If support for Google Play Music is added by then, I'll be pretty happy.

Call Me Charlie posted:Some developer got this to work with Nest and Wink devices. Up until now I've sort of been assuming it would end up being a gift for the some "lucky" family member. Now it's a race to see whether the Echo or the Apple Watch will be my most pointless tech purchase if/when I ever actually receive them.

Huh, I kind of like this thing. The news feed is nice and just asking to hear a song I want to hear is already proving useful. Probably the best way to listen to podcasts I've ever seen too.

I like how often features show up (and that it's automatic). Google Music is on tap, I hope.

The echo will learn just by using it as well - for example, I wanted to listen to "Dunes" by Alabama Shakes. The first few times it heard "tunes" - "Alexa play tunes". Adding "by Alabama Shakes" cleared things up, but since I played the song a few times, now I can just say "dunes" again and it works. Just be very specific for a bit if it's having trouble. Eventually it will learn.

If you have pets def. try the Simon Says thing. "Scruffy you are a good boy" or whatever gets the same look as if a dog said that to me.

beerinator posted:Speaking of Alexa responding to tv or videos, has anyone ever noticed what she does when an Amazon Echo commercial comes on? I can see my echo from where I sit watching tv and I noticed that she hears her name in the commercials, the blue ring comes on and then she immediately seems to turn off. I'm wondering if they've taught her how to listen to official commercials and disregard them based on the specific noise pattern in the commercial?
