Yeah, it's really the little things like this that don't get a lot of press or that people will just have to notice that really shows how well Cortana shines.

Oh, if that came out as me being upset or something, sorry.
NOT my intention.

Eh, looking back, I could have said it differently, but all is good.

Re: Cortana: Tips and Tricks
Hello friend,
First off i'd like to thank you for all the information you have given us, it has really helped me with what to expect next week(hopefully). The only question I have you may not be able to answer so don't feel bad if you can't, and if its already been answered I apologize in advance.
How is Cortana in the sdk? Basically I am curious as to how limited developers are with interacting with her, example: I'd like to be able to post/get messages to her from another app. I expect that ms will have her hard core untouchable, just from how they handle development as it is, but nevertheless I have high hopes that ms will give us a longer leash soon enough and I have some hopes that 8.1 is that leash.
Also, how do you have her on a device, and could you let me in on the secret? XP
Thank you for everything and have a lovely evening.

Re: Cortana: Tips and Tricks
I actually have it on 4 devices (520, 920, 1520 and 8X). The secret? I work for Microsoft. :devil:
The point to Cortana is to have her be used as a platform. Yes, the core will not be exposed, but there will be many things you can do with her as a developer. I am still a baby-Dev, so I can't really talk to what can be done via the Emulator, but I do know that you will be able to use her, or at least in part, in your apps.

Re: Cortana: Tips and Tricks
Thank you for your quick response, you have given me a lot to look forward to!
I am really new with windows phones, I am an android developer so I am instantly trying to think of apps that i could write to make my wp experience better lol.
I got my new phone this week because I wanted to expand my development knowledge of other devices.
Question: how does 8.1 run on the lumia 520? It was the cheapest option i had and i worry that i should have gone for more power, but so far I have been extremely impressed with it.
Thank you.

Re: Cortana: Tips and Tricks
Yes, I actually have it on a 520 device for testing.
FYI, ALL Windows Phone 8 devices will be eligible for 8.1

Re: Cortana: Tips and Tricks
"Did the Giants win yesterday" of course gives me the result in a really nice format. Underneath was the option to show updates for the team. Now the team is added to my Cortana notebook, very cool.

Re: Cortana: Tips and Tricks
Works well with "Cardinals" too, but not any abbreviations of that like "Cards". Also, I notice that the nickname field of a contact isn't automatically recognized by Cortana. You also have to add it to Cortana nicknames.
