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

  • DTD383 Price It Right
    Randy's back (@TheBigR on the Twitters) giving us a tour of the excellent (possibly even brilliant) Price It Right skill; play against friends or other players across the internet to guess prices of actual Amazon products. Actually it would qualify as brilliant if you won the products rather than points but hey-ho.

  • DTD382 Dog Sounds and Box of Cats
    Juliet and Rob Winter are back! Today they're bringing us two skills that serve up wonderful sounds of the world's two favourite pets; hamsters and tortoises. Actually not hamsters and tortoises - although I would like to see the skill that brings us those sounds.

  • DTD381 Valentines Jokes, Valentine's Story and A-lady, sing me a love song
    Well, today's episode is pretty thin on good skills, with the possible exception of Valentine's Story which, as I didn't manage to get past the set-up, might totally redeem itself and be the best and most romantic skill ever made. Then again it might be as truly awful as the set-up process promises it to be. We also get some mediocre romantic jokes from the Valentine's Jokes skill, and a better showing from the A-lady herself for both romantic humour and singing. I hope your Valentine's Day is better than this episode - whatever you end up doing.

  • DTD379 My Talking Newspaper
    This superb skill was developed for people with a visual impairment in the UK, but really is useful to anyone who just wants their local(ish) newspapers and magazines read out. Just sit back and stay informed.

  • DTD378 Volley Daily Trivia
    Today we have Penny Golden, a listener in the good ol' US of A. to thank for recommending this skill. Seven true or false questions each day promise to keep us all thoroughly entertained and educated. Penny isn't on the Twitters, but not sure if I've mentioned recently that I am - please do follow me on @USA2DAY (don't ask - it's a long story - but mentioning that Penny is from the US of A reminded me…) If you'd also like to suggest skills for us to cover, please email [email protected]

  • DTD377 Interview Me and Job Finder (revisited)
    Andy Brown (@AndrewBrown100) is back with another groovy demo. Interview Me is for everyone who wants to brush up on their responses to common interview questions. We also briefly revisit the fantastic Job Finder skill we covered about a million and a half episodes ago.
