Man, there’s something called a blog for this type of stuff. My next challenge when I get so bored I got nothing else to do, I’ll try to make siri on my watch talk to siri on my ipad, and record the conversation with the dictation feature on my mac. I’ll write an applescript specifically for this challenge, and try to stream through http live streaming on youtube, vimeo, merecat, periscope and soundcloud. Oh boy, how much fun this is going to be. Watch out for my own siri challenge folks, I promise you a spectacular time and lots of laughs. And if you want a transcript of the conversation between my watch and my ipad, you will have to register through a challenging web page I will script. The person who can access the transcript receives a free copy of my next blog, the cooking pancakes with IOS challenge. Stay tuned, folks!
