Cortana can do many features and knows what your doing.

Can be extended to 3rd Party apps to gather more information.

My favorite feature that I use a LOT with Cortana:

Me: Remind me to send an email to John Doe about the project next time I am at work
Cortana: Ok, I have set a reminder to send John Doe an email about the project next time you are at work.

When I get to work, I get a reminder. No date/time set, nothing, just tell it to remind me when I get to work.

Cortana got a notebook one setting is interest it will record what your interested in.

 

[BIGPADDY]

Cortana has quiet hours and a set of rules you can set who can ring you up in quiet hour.

He did a really nice job of cleaning that up.

Cortana couldn't convert temperature from degree Celcius to Kelvin. And Joe just put it off by telling the audiance to try it out when they get it on their phone. Lolzzz.....

 

[BIGPADDY]

Cortana seems to be very buggy, I know it in beta but still alot of bugs
