There is, quite literally, no limit to what you can make Siri do with the Siri proxy and your own plug-ins. You could make it draw your kurtains, turn off your lights and lower the volume of your music if you so desired, followed by posting a tweet saying you were going to bed. But as I stated in a message early yesterday morning, it takes in-depth knowledge of programming concepts, the Ruby programming language, and the APIs (if any) offered by the products/services that you want to control. And all that comes after you've managed to get the proxy up and running, which in itself is no easy task. There are tutorials for those who already have a Linux/OS X machine to run it on, but from what I've seen they are heavily geared towards those with a knowledge of the command line, DNS and other network configuration, etc. > This is really fascinating, but I am at the proxy server for dummies level, > LOL! Fascinating it certainly is, and I hate to burst your bubble, but getting Siri to put out food for your cat is not a simple process by any stretch of the immagination. -- James Scholes http://twitter.com/JamesScholes -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
