It's also got some neat tricks up its sleeve that will make you think twice about Googling everything. Start typing "56 feet," and you'll instantly see that converted to meters (17.1 m). Start typing 5+6, and you'll get see "11" displayed. Type "how tall is Barack Obama," and Cortana will tell you he's 6 feet 1 inch. Type "define astounding," and you'll see "surprisingly impressive or notable." Kind of like Cortana.

on porting over apps from iOS android and web:
so you make one app work on a billion devices as long as your app is a web view, and mind you i guess it would already work on those billion devices anyway provided they have a web browser

yeah the "turn your website into a windows app" thing is what they did with our site after we ignored their phone calls begging us to release on windows for 2 months they were so desperate for apps they just went ahead and made it, sent us a surface and a bunch of phones and asked our permission to put it up on the windows store all the payments are through our site so we keep 100% of the revenue. ms just really wanted to be able to say they have our "app" on their store.

microsoft says they now only have 14% market share, which, they say, is actually an advantage cause it gives them an "underdog" mindset. and also means a lot of cold-calling and pleading. instead of making branded pens and novelty items to hand out at trade fairs though, they made a whole tablet computer to give away like werther's originals

my other problem is that all apps view is still going to be made semi-worthless by having 8 different things listed called "update" or "uninstall" without any of them being sorted into folders to differentiate them

those uninstallers are apps too!
