Amazon Links Alexa, Prime Now

Seattle-based Amazon.com said Tuesday that it has added the ability to order items on Prime Now via Alexa, its voice assistant. According to Amazon, Alexa can now order multiple items at once, make recommendations, and automatically choose the next available 2-hour delivery windows on tens of thousands of items. The company also said that Alexa can also now be used to order cold beer, wine and spirits from Prime Now, in select cities.
