Dot to Dot - the daily 5min Alexa demo show

A feature that's new this week is the ability for Alexa to read your Kindle books. You can now pick a book from your library and listen, knowing that your place will be saved even when you switch between books. Say hello to really affordable reading on your Echo.

In this episode we look at a cool geography-related skill. See if your talents in this area are as lamentable as mine - or are you a geography quiz whizz?

Today we look at two skills; the first will undoubtedly help you become at least twice as beautiful (unless that's not practically possible as you're too close to perfection already) and the second will help whiten those teeth after yesterday's coffee.

If you're like me and don't know your macchiato from your mochaccino then this episode's for you. We'll look at the excellent Coffee Chef skill, topping it off with a lovely creamy dollop that is the recommendation for the quick, easy and cheap coffee maker; the Aerobie Aeropress.

In this slightly sunny, slightly creepy, episode we check out the built-in singing skills of Alexa and then a humming skill which sounds spookily like the A-lady herself.

Come along for the ride as you explore the mysterious house and its subterranean environs. Ignore Barry - he's just grouchy.

In this episode we look at the skill called One Liners which does pretty much what it says on the tin; if it's a tin labeled 'One Liners' containing a mixture of pretty good jokes that each include only one full-stop, that is.

In this episode (the last now until Christmas I'm afraid) we look at the April-fool-related features of Alexa and also touch upon tomorrow's almost-certainly-ill-fated Oxford-Cambridge boatrace. What a lot of hyphens! Bye for now and "Merry Christmas!"

With no political agenda whatsoever I bring you Crazy Trump Facts. if anyone can find me an equivalent for other presidents I'd be happy to feature it. In the meantime enjoy or endure this skill.

Need a nap? Seeking some sounds to soothe you to sleep? If so then this skill should provide everything you need - so long as you're able to snooze within range of your Echo that is.
