RE: The Best Virtual Assistant.
What? That sounds awesome! How did you go about scripting it anyway? Any way to see it in action?

The current one is everything in Tasker and on my android phone. There's really not much to see, it's just a pseudorandom script generator for a few hundred actions . For instance :
Which gives you 2x3x3x3x1x2=108 random sentences when your calendar has a reminder about your doctor appointment. Usually with a little thought I can beef them up to seem pretty varied, maybe 500 different sentences or so. I just do that for various things, adding to the array of phrases when I run into something I need.
I just read the array and pick (with the equivalent of a case/switch loop) depending on the activity and then randomize the sentence structure to sound less robotic.
There's no real way to demonstrate it unless I'm doing something, I mean, right now it just tells me the name and artist of the song and maybe the time, I don't have anything going on until after Christmas. If I were outside it checks my location and uses the Transit API to find the next bus. Oh wait, it actually just reminded me to take my vitamins (1:00pm), but now that's gone.
I'll write a post about it one day and make some examples.
Transit API? Man that's awesome, I wish we have that here. I don't think even Singapore has something like that! Gonna check Tasker out. Speaking of which, I hope your data is safe using it!
I keep my data safe by making sure no one wants it. I keep it boring. The most someone could charge by stealing my credit card is $300
