I too love technology. I have embraced computers for many many years. I love my smart phone especially all the apps that help make my life easier. Or able to look up a location or cheap gas prices when I am away from my computer. I also use the GPS when I dont want to put my Garmin up. I have Alexa and love her. She turns lights on and off, turns on my electric blanket. Gives me conversions for when I am cooking. I can set an alarm (esp for cooking) or a reminder when I have appointments. She tells me what is on my calendar for the day or week. If Amazon delivered something or when it will be delivered. I tell her to add things to my shopping list so I always have it with me. I also have a To Do list on there when going camping or road trip. She will make phone calls for me if you are in my contacts I just say "Alexa call sue" Most useful feature is "Alexa call my phone" for obvious reasons LOL Down side is when the electricity goes off and I lose my wifi. LOL

Ok, I'm convinced. I'm asking Santa for Alexa for Christmas!

I will wait until Alexa version 12 comes out in about 12 years! Lol!
