Dot to Dot - the daily 5min Alexa demo show episodes

  • DTD730 Twenty Questions (revisited)

    First demoed way back in episode 56, Twenty Questions is a king among skills. If you aren't aware of it, or haven't played it for a while, now's the time to well and truly include it in your most favourite things to do with the A-lady.

  • DTD729 Pet My Dog

    Similar to the excellent demo of 'My Pet Rock' done by Rob and Juliet Winter, today's virtual pet has more legs and fur - and probably ears and tails too. Did you know you have more than the average number of legs? If you want to know why then drop me a line. Big thanks to Felix Ayee (@DJFelix2020 on Twitter) for another great skill demo.

  • DTD728 Car Games

    To be sure you get today's skill, you may want to search for 'BB Labs'. It'll make many a long car journey much more manageable and with a lot less looking down at screens with glassy expressions.

  • DTD726 True or False for Family (updated)

    Opened simply with "True or False", this version of the popular fact or fiction skill is for all the family. Not the same as a skill by the same name covered way back, so its either updated or a different skill altogether - maybe we'll never know…

  • DTD725 KISSTORY

    A brand new contributer this week.; Felix Ayee (@DJFelix2020 on Twitter) brings us a great demo of the KISSTORY skill that provides several great UK radio stations. I love to receive demos, guys, so please send them to [email protected].

  • DTD724 Would You Rather (a different one)

    There are several 'Would You Rather' skills out there, but this on'es a good'n. It's by Labworks.io - also responsible for several great skills we've covered before, such as Trivia Hero and Star Commander. So would you rather listen to today's demo or be thoroughly dipped in Nutella and slowly nibbled to death by squirrels? Think carefully before answering.

  • DTD723 Audio Battleship and Battleship Classic

    Today Patrick Steggle ([email protected]) and I do two quick demos of brilliant Battleship-related skills. In the first; 'Audio Battleship', you try to sink the A-lady's armada, whilst in the second; 'Battleship Classic', you grab paper and pen and pit your wits against her in a high stakes head-to-head. Good luck if you're using the old brainbox alone to keep track of either of these knotty nautical campaigns, guys.

  • DTD722 Polish Kings

    Was there a King Elbow the Short or did I just mis-hear that one? Even though it's sans sound-effects, there's definitely a Queen Headwig so need I say more?
