Dot to Dot - the daily 5min Alexa demo show

We've an additional dose of funny sounds today thanks to a demo from Holly Anderson (@DHSHolly) and Darcy Bernard (@DHSDarcy) dropping on the mat just in time.

Brought to us by comedian Mike Epps (he sounds famous or, at the very least, funny) today's is another guess-that-sound skill. Play it solo sans accessories or multi-player if you've got those amazing Amazon Buttons and someone like Bob dropping round.

Calvin and Hobbes; one of my all-time favourite things. Shakespeare; if he was still alive today I'm sure he'd agree. He's say something to the effect that "They're grrrreat!" but altogether much more quotable (whilst retaining the cleverish tiger reference of course). Thanks Penny ([email protected]) for today's great skill demos.

Darcy Bernard (@DHSDarcy) and Holly Anderson (@DHSHolly) have joined the team and brought us a great demo of the A-lady's take on the classic Trivial Pursuit board game. Do check out their excellent all things tech podcast with a focus on vision; Maccessibility. I may or may not be on that podcast too. Alright, I am.

Today Rill takes us through a rambling dungeon riddled with mysterious creatures making maths riddles. Even taking away the fact that there's a nice sound-effect at the start, this skill still adds up to a real gem - totally.

Brilliant! A new listener joins the gang; Steve Bauer brings us a really useful overview of voice calling using the Echo wherever those pesky additional numbers are needed. Need to reach an extension or enter a conference code? No problemo - Steve's here to help.

It's a double-act today; first Penny's back [email protected]) showing us how to blow up a spaceship and then I try to cheer us up, as we float in the vacuum of space facing almost certain death, with a so-so Star Trek joek or two.

Great skill today; Guess My Name gets two thumbs up as, for probably the first time ever, I get 5 out of 5 in a quiz (with lots of help from Judith).

Ever wanted to be able to read, action and curate your emails using your Echo? No? Oh, ok. See you tomorrow. Yes? Cool - Phillip's got the skill for you.

If you'd like to be able to favourite your, er, favourite skills and then ask the A-lady what they are, then please let Amazon know. Give them feedback in the 'Help and feedback' tab in your Amazon A-lady app.
