Make Siri Your Virtual Assistant

I’m busy. You’re busy. Everyone is busy these days. We have entirely too much to do and not nearly enough time to do it all in. We could all use a virtual assistant, and Siri is here to fill the gap in our lives.

Ask Siri to do something (by text or speech) and it will do it. Do you need a taxi in an hour? That’s not a problem. Just tell Siri and the cab will be waiting. It takes only a few seconds to accomplish these simple tasks, which is much faster than if you had to look up a number and make a call to do them. Once you confirm that Siri understands what you asked, it will give you what you asked for faster than you can decide what you want for dinner.

I have this app myself, and have been using it often since I became more acclimated to it at SXSW. I can almost guarantee you will come to rely on it as much as I do.

I have been working with Chris Pirillo and the LockerGnome team since August of 2007. I've done just about everything you can imagine: writing, community management, social media management, organizing Gnomedex, working with sponsors for the live stream/blog, and so much more. I have learned more than I ever realized I could and am forever grateful to Chris, the team, and the wonderful community we've built. At this time, I mostly handle all of the social media for Chris while also working full-time for a hot new startup as the Director of Social and Community -- building its online presence from the ground up. Life is never boring and never silent, but it's one hell of a ride every moment of every day. I wouldn't trade it for the world.

    Although I think that this is a great idea, living in the UK means that I can’t use it until they make some agreements here. :(

    Public restrooms are really needed in places that people always go to. They shouldn’t really do that.
