The service can respond to questions about the weather and traffic, and can also connect to things like personal
calendars and Gmail accounts to provide
personalized information to users who ask.
If you ask Alexa what's going on today, you can hear your
personalized «flash briefing» that contains
information like the local weather forecast, local news highlights, what's on your
calendar and other quick tidbits of things Alexa already knows you're interested in.
