What else do you use your Echo Dot for?
Our Dot is in the kitchen, and kitchen tasks are her primary use.
We use the shopping list, set timers, do measurement conversion.
And the kids play music during their kitchen chores.
Since she's in earshot of the dining room, we'll sometimes ask reference questions that come up over dinner. (The hacked Google skill makes her a bit more useful for that one.)
