So I'm having more than the 10 minutes of fun I anticipated with my Echo.

I come downstairs in the morning, say "Alexa, play..." (this morning it was Good Morning Starshine because it was morning and dark), make my coffee, feed the cats, ask for a weather report, then go back upstairs. Right now I have a timer set ("Alexa, set a timer for 5:30." "Is that morning or afternoon?" "Afternoon" "Timer set for 5:30 this afternoon") so I can go back down and preheat the oven for my pizza. When I came home I had her tell me a joke. The first one was lame but I gave her a 2nd chance. The 2nd one caused a delayed reaction on my part. It was also lame but it was a funny lame. Kids will love Alexa for these jokes. Then I had her play Working for the Weekend because, well, it's the weekend.
Right now I think her answer for the meaning of life justified the purchase price.
