I do as well, but am having a difficult time thinking of something useful for it to help me with! I just got my upgrade to WP8.1 a little over a month ago and so far, the only thing I've done with Cortana is to setup the way 'she' addresses me...I prefer to be called Master!

As far as I've been able to determine with Windows 10 9926, Cortana is cloud-backed, big-data software designed to take any user input, and then hardcoded to tell you that something went wrong and you should try again later.

Extremely easy WSO CCC of the day:
I am dancing with a part of mine. (5)
Good luck!
-- EDIT: Proper nouns are allowed in CCCs, aren't they?

You are the setter and if Miami were the solution then my guess would be wrong.
All of this is fruitless as you have now given away the solution.
Sigh!

But you are still up for tomorrow as yours was still a valid solution given the clue.

I will set the clue for tomorrow if you insist, but the solution is what you say the solution is. Just because I got any solution that fits the clue doesn't make me win.
I'm not sure about the rules for setting a CCC though.
Are clues with multiple solutions allowed?
Cheers!

Well, the legal principle is "Ambiguity in contract benefits the party that did not draft it." and by that logic your solution, although isn't what I originally intended, does satisfy the clue. So clearly it was the clue which had the ambiguity.

Hmmm, let me guess...
Miami!!
Life is too shor

I was thinking MORIA
MIA = I am, dancing
OR = gold, ie part of mine
MORIA being a mine in LOTR.

I like your solution, but it doesn't quite fit the clue.
For your solution the clue would need to be more like:
"I am dancing around part of mine"

Generally speaking proper nouns are not acceptable. However, more importantly, your clue does not contain a definition part. So the answer is anybody's guess.

I have to agree with Pete Richard - it does need a definition of the answer.
Perhaps
I am dancing with a part of mine in Vice City? (5)
would do it?
I am dancing IAM (anag) MIA
with a part of mine MI in Vice City
MIAMI
(From Miami Vice, but inferring incorrectly that it's Grand Theft Auto related)
But you shouldn't use proper names anyway.
