If you are too lazy to type in the questions you want, you can enable "Hey Cortana" on your computer. Just turn on the toggle with ease. If you want Cortana to learn your voice and accents better, you can turn on "Hey Cortana" and choose "To me" and repeat the phrases shown.
Besides setting up the preference, you can also customize your name or location in "About Me" option of "Notebook".

1. Home Button
By choosing on "Home" button, things like football match, restaurant, and more will be recommended. Besides, you can also choose "Facts", "Calendar" and "Show times".

The Notebook option provides you with more choices. You can not only configure your Cortana here but also set up tips or stuff you are interested in so that Cortana will recommend to you.
There are many options for you as listed: "Eat & Drink", "Events", "Finance", "Getting around", "Meetings & reminders", "Movies & TV", "News", "Packages" and "Sports". Take Eat & Drink for example, enable "Eat & Drink" card and choose whether to add an atmosphere or recommendations from Foursquare and so on. After setting up, Cortana will recommend popular restaurants, bar, coffee shops and more for you on Home page.

In the reminders option, we can add or check reminders on our computer. All the reminders can be listed in "Time", "Place" and "Person".
