Cortana! Possibly the most exciting thing about WP 8.1, a personalized voice assistant that can finally rival the likes of Siri and Google Now. So here’s a quick first look (but before that a video showing how to get Cortana if you’re outside the US).

Once you start Cortana you’ll be prompted to enter your birthday, name and some other details; that will help Cortana personalize herself for you. You can set your interests such as “Nokia” or “Windows Phone” as well as favorite sport teams, weather alerts traffic and so much more.

I haven’t yet seen all the customization options mentioned, such as listing who my “mom” is or my “brothers” but I’m sure I’ll find them eventually, for now have fun with it! And if you find any interesting responses from Cortana post them below! DSC05356DSC05363 DSC05364DSC05366DSC05367DSC05360DSC05355
