Apple’s i4S Siri takes a Web assistant
Acting as a virtual personal assistant to help people get things done just by posing verbal questions, Siri answers with to all kinds of questions. In addition to providing useful answers, Apple has programmed Siri to provide amusing answers to many questions, especially naughty questions.
The new site features a Q&A format that displays Siri’s answers only to questions selected by the visitor, thus minimizing the need to navigate through many pages to find what one is looking for.
According to a recent study conducted by market research firm NDP Group, the amount of mobile phone users looking for additional help and useful resources has increased by 34 percent over the past 24 months and is expected to continue an upward spiral through 2020.
"The home page of 4Siri.com provides direct access to 2 featured videos, Apple’s official Siri website, iPhone 4S FAQ, Tips & Tricks, 25 additional articles and, most important, a comprehensive database of more than 300 Siri answers, conveniently divided into 3 categories — funniest, cool and naughty questions," said the website’s developer, Jodi Dery, in a statement.
The site also provides a method for users to submit screenshots of newly discovered Siri answers, each of which will be verified before being added to the site, according to Dery. A one-stop iPhone 4S accessory shop, managed by Amazon.com, is also on the site.
It is not known whether Apple has sanctioned the site .
