I was much more impressed when my phone started giving my commute details without prompting. Because of my phone's movements, it figured out that I was teaching only on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. So, it started offering me the estimated driving times shortly before I had to leave. Creepy? No! I like the idea that a device can become useful without intervention.
Of course, I turned on permission to rummage through my gmail account. Even if I don't complete an actual travel purchase, Jay sends me the email confirmation.
Just now I started getting information about tomorrow's flights on my tablet and phone. Google Now first learned the basic data a month or so ago, but has saved the info until it became useful. It's also continuing to add details as they become available. I feel we are just seeing the dawn of an era where life is going to be truly and positively impacted by technologies such as these.
It appears now as though we are flying out of Terminal D; I do hope we fly into that Dallas/Ft. Worth terminal too. We have never transferred through that airport, but we are lucky. We will meet up with an friend who works for American Airlines and he'll be on our flight for his commute back to Vancouver. That was entirely coincidental! Maybe in a few years, my phone would've told me this as soon as we booked the tickets or even suggested a date to make it work.
Oh, and thanks Google for throwing in the current temperature in Dallas.
