       TIL if you say "Lumos" into your phone's microphone 🎤 your flashlight will turn on, and if you say "nox," it turns off.

       @estherschindler That may be the most useful thing I've ever heard of anyone doing with Siri.

       @grammargirl Oh, Siri can do more cool and useful things. When it first came out I reviewed _Talking to Siri: Learning the Language of Apple's Intelligent Assistant_, and one thing I learned how to do is say, "Siri, when I get home remind me to put out the trash [or Call Brad]." It knows what spot you have marked as Home, for instance, so it pops up with a reminder or suggests the phone call. I don't use that feature often, but golly it's handy when I do.

       @estherschindler Oooh, I can see how that would be useful too.
