iris:android對siri的迴應

Alec為Android使用者提供了以下提示：

After hearing about all the fun people were having with Siri (Apple’s new voice-driven assistant in iOS 5), I set out to find a similar app for Android. Iris seems to fit the bill. I’m still feeling Iris out but so far it seems to work pretty well, as well as an alpha-release voice control app can be expected to work, at any rate! You can issue commands to send text messages or call contacts, make other requests, and even ask it questi***. I’m not going to admit to how many minutes I wasted talking to Iris.

是時候讓聊天機器人和艾里斯對決了，看看會發生什麼。謝謝你給亞歷克小費！

超便宜的diy閃光擴散器表現與商業模式不相上下

Nikki寫了一篇關於攝影愛好者的小貼士：

I’ve noticed the great DIY photography articles and Photoshop tutorials on your site. I thought you might appreciate this guide to creating your own Lightsphere-like flash diffuser. For readers who might not be in the know, the Lightsphere is this $40 flash diffuser that everyone raves about and loves. The guide I linked to on Instructables shows you how to turn a silicone drawer mat from IKEA. You can get a huge roll of the stuff for a couple bucks, more than enough to make a Lightsphere clone, a backup or two, and a few for your friends.

Keep up the good work!

謝謝分享Nikki！辦公室裡有幾個人一直在看光球；我們得先弄些抽屜襯墊，試試這個幾乎免費的解決方案。

在android中傳送基於組的文字訊息

Marty在文章中為經常發大量簡訊的Android使用者提供了一個節省時間的提示：

We use text messaging hand over fist at my work. I used to have to create a message and add each contact individually. That was a huge pain, let me tell you. A few weeks back I found this Android app called Multi Texter. It has a variety of functi*** that make text messaging more than one person pleasant but the real value for me is the Group function. I can create specific groups (my team+boss, just my team, friends, family members I MMS cute kid picture to, etc.) for my specific needs. It’s so easy to fire off a text to 20 people. What used to take me 4 minutes of annoying tapping is like 2 seconds now.

你說把可愛的小孩照片寄給親戚很方便？節省時間？我們正在下載。謝謝你，馬蒂！
