Ask HN: How Will Google and Apple Respond to the Success of Alexa Echo?
Amazon's Alexa Echo is on a tear. When and how do you think Google, Apple and others will respond? Could you describe what you mean as "on a tear"? Are you referring to successful marketing campaigns? Successful acquisition of mindshare? Profit? Advance in the underlying tech? Here you go bruv: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=On+a+tear Please stop posting uncivil and/or unsubstantive comments here. Not sure if you are just skimming my comments without context or what but that was an answer to the guy's question. Jeez. Is Echo really selling that well? I haven't seen one. Nor have I heard any friends or co-workers talk about buying one.
