Recently I attended my third Startup Weekend Tulsa, and 2nd time pitching. And as this year the event was being held at Fab Lab Tulsa, I decided to pitch a physical product.
An image probably can demonstrate this best.
A feature of Siri and the Reminders app I haven’t heard anyone talk about yet is its ability to add items to particular lists. Its probably been covered on a couple Siri how-tos but I feel it wouldn’t hurt to re-state it.
After you have entered one item into your shopping list you can use Siri’s context aware capabilities to continue adding items to the list without having to say the lengthy “to the shopping list”. Just start saying by activating Siri again via the mic button and preface any item you want to add to the list with “add”. So you would say something like this “add Honey”. And viola! Siri knows which list you’re talking about and you don’t have to sound like some sort of demented enchanter rattling off “add bacon to my shopping list, add soap to my shopping list” ect.
More often then not I find myself attempting to roam the deep recesses of my mind while walking through the grocery isles because I forgot to jot down consumed food items. Now I don’t have an excuse as the barrier is so low to capture these observations. And yet I still manage to every now and then…
A couple weeks back I gave a talk at Tulsa Tech Fest 20111 on some of the new CSS3 features that are becoming available in modern browsers.
The talk focused on Internet Explorer support for versions 8-10, as the conference was primarily Microsoft and to give any present future Windows 8 developers an idea of what is possible on IE10 based Metro applications.
Download CSS3 and You Presentation
The download also contains my button demo, which was an attempt to cram as many practical CSS3 features into a button as possible for demonstration purposes. The demo directory is a git repo so you can back track the code to see the button in different states of completeness.
Hope you find it informative.
