If you’ve seen the new iPhone 4s then you most likely have seen Siri. Siri is this “personal assistant”. You talk to your phone and she talks back. Kind of like a new best friend that is with you where ever you go. I, being an Android fanboy, actually wanted it. It is just fun to mess around on and I wanted it for fun. However, in typical fashion of the Android developers, a developer made a Siri alternative…in 8 hours. This app is called Iris, which is Siri backwards. It is definitely in alpha, but the mistakes make it all the better. She (it, he?) gets so confused at some questions and just says a bunch of randoms stuff. They recently added functions to call, text, look up contact, and search something on the web. She also sent me a picture of a boob one time, and a fat molecule, which was just weird. But, it is definitely fun to use so go look up Iris in your local Android Market.Iris in Action

    I saw somebody on your Facebook say Siri does not even work for them in Portuguese. This looks alot better.

      Yeah I think in the future when it gets its glitches ringed out it’ll have better language support since it’s using Google Voice.
