Amazon Echo (Alexa) tests Google Home in the dark.

I wrote an app (called 'skill') for the Amazon Echo to demonstrate some of the features of Amazon Echo and Google Home.

When being invoked by saying 'Echo, start small talk", Echo starts and leads through a conversation with Google Home. Google Home just reacts to what it is being told by Echo, there doesn't run any custom app on Google Home at any time.

Every time the Echo asks Google Home a question, it waits for its answer and later processes the input if necessary to output its own response (in this example, it only does that when it gets the time).

Google Home changes the colours of the connected LifX bulbs and turns them off via IFTTT the response message is customised.

After the last command has been spoken by the Echo, the skill stops. When Google Home responds with 'Echo, good night!', the basic functionality of Amazon Echo gets invoked (not a custom skill).

Have fun!
