Amazon Echo gets additional news sources for Flash Briefing

Amazon Echo’s latest update brings new sources for its Flash Briefing feature. You can now add the likes of CNN, Bloomberg, NPR, Discovery News, The Economist, and ESPN Radio. Just head over to the Settings section of the Alexa app. Other than that, the Echo also now has some mad rhyming skills. It gets RhymeZone, a rhyming dictionary that you can speak to. You can just ask questions like, “Alexa, what rhymes with blue?” and it’ll get you a word or words that rhyme with it. You can now also ask it about baby names and what the popular names are for a particular year. The new skills can be added from the Skills section of the Alexa app.
