Add tasks to Things with Siri

You can add reminders to Siri that get transferred to you Things inbox, and the reminder is then removed from reminders. It is fantastic and works perfectly! It describes it here http://support.culturedcode.com/customer/portal/articles/183236-using-siri-with-things on the Cultured Code website but does not describe how to turn it on and use it! Well here is how you can do it;

1) Create a list in Reminders called "Things" or whatever you would prefer
2) In Things on your iPhone, under preferences, go to "Reminders & Siri"
3) Choose to "Show Reminders" and choose the "Things" list from earlier
4) Now word your reminder to Siri as "Add [item] to my [listname] list" which would be something like "Add bake a cake to my Things list"
5) This will add the reminder in Reminders, it will go into the Things inbox and delete it from reminders. You can then go into Things inbox and choose to import the reminder or move it to a project
