Dot to Dot - the daily 5min Alexa demo show

Another great demo from Thomas Domville ([email protected]) today. These audio adventure games are such amazing fun - and how I wish I sounded like that intro guy.

A nice, concise, summary of what's hot in the techosphere today.

By a developer called 'Peace Through Understanding', this skill's a must-listen for everyone who wants to gain a little more knowledge and appreciation of this major world religion. We're all one family after all.

What do a sparrow, a loft-ladder, a fabled medieval magician and a brave and beautiful woman have in common? They're all featured in today's episode - either in-demo or IRL.

Here in Britain, picking up chips is what you do from the chippy - along with some nice battered cod and the side of mushy peas. Thomas Domville ([email protected]), however, puts a whole new twist on it.

Not available here in the UK (sigh), it's immersive audio-adventure at its best. "Nice job," I said to myself (although really meaning it to be for Thomas' ears) as I pulled the brim down on my imaginary hat and chewed some imaginary gum.
