Set your Location. For the most personalized information that pertains to your local area, it’s best to make sure Alexa knows where you are located. This is an obvious one, but the Echo doesn’t come with your location set by default. To set your location, open the Echo app and go to Settings > Your Echo’s Name > Echo Device Location.

I will be writing up an article about integrating Google Calendar soon, unfortunately, I actually use the calendar on Outlook.com…so I too am hoping for better Microsoft service integration. I’ve put in a request for something like a batch of instructions in one. For instance, in the mornings when I come downstairs, I ask for the time, then the weather, then either music or the flash briefing. three different commands. I’d like to be able to say one thing and have all of those things happen for me. but they’re forever adding things, so hopefully that will come.
