just been doing some in-depth research on it, it's pretty nifty really

you can for example say to it "Alexa, set an egg timer for 4 minutes." and then in 4 minutes it will tell you four minutes is up. I can see that this skill can be exploited not just for eggs. e.g. if you wanted to roast a joint of lamb for 1 hour and 13 minutes just say "alexa, set an egg timer for one hour and 13 minutes" and not only will you be getting a lovely juicy roast but you will be sticking one to her and laughing in the face of technology. up yours AI.
