The Ellen Show got all Siri-ous today with Robin Williams doing a unique impression of Siri, the intelligent personal assistant that comes in the iPhone 4s.
In addition, Ellen did a spoof commercial for iPhone 4S focused on Siri.
Regardless of the level of hilarity or lack thereof – to each his own – it’s still some nice publicity. Apple can now check off the Ellen audience as Siri-educated, or at least Sis-intrigued.
[Thanks to MacDailyNews readers too numerous to mention individually for the heads up.]
Me: Siri…. Could you pay for better advertising.
Siri: To whom?
Robin’s French Siri was pretty funny.
I think the actual French Siri is a male voice… 🙂
it is.
you can change the language Siri uses in General > Siri
Keep in mind, you need to speak French/German for Siri to understand. no translate. (yet?)
Who’s the person doing the Siri impersonations? That may be a hot show-biz commodity right now.
That’s Robin Williams. Man, has he gotten old!
I meant in the other video. 🙂
You’re joking, right? You really don’t know Robin Williams?
Jumanji? Patch Adams? Mork From Ork? Countless others…
When there’s comedians (comediennes?) and TV hosts making jokes about something, it tells you that it is pervasive enough to be funny. Nobody would get a joke if they were talking about TellMe (from Microsoft), or some similarly obscure thing.
No, this is the best one.

“Searching for… a place to hide.”
That’s funny as hell, I’m still laughing.
“Is it my fault.”

Please don’t drag me into this.
