https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUJfVZzxu3M Microsoft has released yet another Cortana advertisement that mocks Siri for lacking contextual reminders and real-time traffic reports. Microsoft pokes fun at the personal voice assistant by claiming that it “just got bigger,” a sarcastic reference to the larger screen sizes on the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus.

Richard Blevins (Ninja) was reportedly given 20 to 30 million dollars to make the switch to Mixer....
