Can you get walking directions to Mordor?
It doesn't understand that one. Currently the Echo does not provide directions or travel times. Those are features still yet to come, and not too critical since it is not like Siri and doesn't leave the house with you.

Here's the best Google Now one:
"When am I?"
-
Mine seems more like a toy - my wife doesn't like it.
-
I love mine. Of course it is about 50/50 what it gets used for Grocery shopping list and Bluetooth speaker

I always wanted to own my very own Alexa.
Oh, I guess it's not that Alexa.

New ones added this weekend:
Also, Independence Day is this weekend and Alexa is ready to help you celebrate--all you have to do is ask:
"Alexa, play the Star-Spangled Banner"
"Alexa, read the Declaration of Independence"
"Alexa, tell me an Independence Day joke" -
Siri doesn't like
Who Let the dog's out?
Due to unforeseen circumstances, that witticism has been retired.
