Have You Got A Sirian Accent?
As the excitement of the iPhone 4s and its voice controlled feature Siri take to the world
, the question on everyones home button is (literally) Why doesnt Siri understand me?
It appears thousands of iPhone 4s users are having complications with Siri understanding them, with some even boldly asking Is Siri racist?- That may be pushing it for a voice controlled feature, but some users around the world are really getting frustrated.
Some iPhone 4s users on forums claim to have only bought the iPhone 4s for the Siri feature and are now disappointed that they dont have the best communications with Mr. Siri.
We take a look at some of the most common complaints.
Top of the list for reporting problems are users with strong Indian, Japanese and Scottish accents. It appears to be the vowels that Siri has a problem with and users grammatical sentencing. There is a you tube video of a Japanese man asking What weather for today? and Siri innocently replying Which Linda do you want to callvery frustrating for the poor guy, but perhaps the grammar needs to be correct for Siri to pick it up, no offense but as the old saying goes ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer.
The fact is, as much as the words are correct, you need to ask Siri a grammatically correct question to receive an appropriate response. Many users say that if they slow down, Siri picks up accents just fine, as long as the grammar is correct.
We tried Siri out with some of our accents and it appeared to work perfectly asking in a heavy Scottish accent What time is it? and Siri also responded well to Indian accents using clear English vocabulary.
The question is should we be taking Siri so seriously? Its a novelty feature that will take some time to evolve. Some love it, some hate it but come on, Siris new, lets not start being rude to him just yet.
To see how Siri felt about these latest comments we asked Siri Are you popular to which he responded We were talking about you, not me
Ooooh dont be so defensive Siri! :)

With 60 million people now using the Skype app on mobile devices, it really has done what it set out to do. The app was downloaded over a million times in the first 36 hours of its release.
We love it in our office, as with friends and family living abroad, it is not only the cheapest way to chat and talk but the app allow you to use Skype on the move, at the airport or even out shopping. For many of us that have chosen to use it this way, it almost makes the text message redundant.
The Skype for iPhone update includes a new feature that reduces the shakiness of an outgoing Skype video chat when using your rear camera. Therefore, if you're using Skype video to show friends and family your new haircut or new shoes, the image they see will be less shaky.
