Voice In Canada Flash Briefing #6
Hey there, I hope you are enjoying your weekend to help you enjoy your weekend a little bit more and to help you relax.
Today I want to highlight one of my absolute favorite flash briefings other than Voice in Canada of course and this one is Hashtag Trending.
This is put up by IT World Canada and we actually had the editorial director, Brian Jackson on the podcast a few weeks ago.
You can find that one, that AlexainCanada.ca/10. But basically, this flash briefing takes all of the most recent technology stories.
The things that are trending, the things that are most popular on the social media outlets.
They look at things like Google, reddit, Twitter, Facebook and among others and then what they do is they take these trending stories and condense them down into small, short little snippets and they produce their flash briefing on a daily basis.
This flash briefing takes all of the most recent technology stories.
And I’ve loved it so much that I’ve enabled it and it’s now part of my morning routine when I tell Alexa to start my day.
This is one of the first flash briefings actually that I have playing. And you know, told me the day when Jeff Bezos became the most rich person in the world, the head of Amazon.
But it covers other things too. So it’s not only Amazon or Alexa News, it’s also Google news, It Tesla News.
You know, they covered when the Falcon Heavy made the launch and launch the Tesla with the star man astronaut into space.
So it’s great. It really keeps you updated on the highlights and it’s really succinct. It’s just a great all around flash briefing.
And again, just a quick plug for the contest to win the Amazon Echo Dot. All of the details @VoiceinCanada.ca I’ll be only too thrilled to give that away to one of you. Have a great weekend.
