Sneak peek: "Neighbours" feature for Alfred 0.9
This was a parody post for April 1st. Unfortunately, Universal Powerline Cloud™ technology which allows for effortless and security free connection to your neighbours networks doesn't exist :)
Over the past few weeks, Andrew has been working on a new feature for version 0.9 which we've kept under wraps until now. This feature will make Alfred the most useful app in your household; it will help you communicate effectively with your community and influence what happens behind closed doors. Alfred will be more powerful than ever before.
So without further ado, here's a sneak peak of "Neighbours", the greatest feature for Alfred yet:
"Neighbours" feature
With the new "Neighbours" feature, no house will ever be an island again. Just use the keyword "neighbour" inside the main Alfred window and choose from the available list of neighbourhood computers.
Once you've chosen a computer to connect to, use Alfred with the keywords and shortcuts that you're used to. Alfred will help you quickly find documents on your neighbour's Mac or PC. Check out Jimmy's latest school report card, connect to their music library, or copy over the files you have been chatting about.
Security & hassle free
Because we are using new Universal Powerline Cloud™ technology, Alfred will be able to effortlessly connect to your neighbours networks and computers without having the hassle of authentication. Even better, Alfred doesn't need to be running on their computer (Mac or PC) to be able to browse and search their files.
It's convenient and fast and you'll never have to wait for your neighbour to take the time to send the files over! Just pop into Alfred, quickly identify the file you want, maybe take a peek at what they have been up to over the past few days and you are done, without them even having to know.
We give you Alfred Neighbours: Bringing you and your neighbours much closer together.
As Alfred is a true English butler, you are required to spell it "neighbour". No alternative keyword will be accepted.
