What is Siri?

Unless you've been living under a rock for the last couple weeks, you've probably heard a lot of people talking about Siri

What is it?

It's a new program from Apple on the new iPhone 4S that talks to you. Well, it's more than that. It's a personal assistant of sorts that recognizes your voice and can have pretty complex conversations with you. In fact, she can be a little bit sassy!

It's an application that features a very advanced speech-recognition program that is useful AND fun to play with. Here's an example of a Siri conversation: 

Stephen Colbert even tried to have Siri write his show, but he didn't get very far!

All in all, it's quite fantastic. The most obvious use is for texting while driving. Who needs to wait for a stoplight when you can just tell Siri to send the text?
