With the recent release of the iPhone 4S came a brand new personal assistant called “Siri“. You can give Siri a variety of commands, such as texting, listening to voicemail, playing music, the list goes on. You can also ask Siri anything, and Siri will give you an answer…..although people have come to find that Siri’s answers aren’t always right, and sometimes failing to find information at all.

Well Android has released there answer to Siri, Iris (note: Siri spelled backwards…go figure). How does the Alpha release of Iris (powered by ChaCha) compare to Siri? Can it keep up with current events? Can it answer some of the more bizarre questions? Watch the video to find out.

Having a verb named after your company may be the first step.  Building Android, Google Maps, Google Calendar, Google Search, steps 2,3,4 and 5….and on and on and on. But establishing good will with airline travels may seal the deal.

I recently flew into the Indianapolis International Airport and noticed a sign “Happy Holidays: Free WiFi from Google.” Interested, I “googled” google to find out the scoop. Not only is Google giving away free WiFi at 47 airports across the country, but the company is matching donations to 3 charities along with the promotion. Good free service. Good PR.  Good cause. Great company.
