I actively tried to get the 'Google Now' app/thing to work for me to help my scheduling but it wouldn't. There is a bus stop a short walk from my place and I wanted it to let me know when it would come on a given day (it does seem to know the public transit schedule). It's been an exercise in frustration more than anything, because I know that it knows a lot about me but it refuses to assist me in anything other than its own time or way.

For instance I will be walking around and it will tell me when the next buses are coming for nearby stops, except for the one that I live by. It has also guessed where I 'work' (go to school, whatever, I can forgive that) and what times I'm usually there, so it will tell me when I need to leave and what route to take at any time except when I actually need to leave, i.e. in the morning.

I wouldn't necessarily mind having a system that notices my patterns and notifies my of when I need to leave, what route, what the traffic is like, etc if it would actually work and not annoying the hell out of me. And I'll be damned if I can ever get voice recognition to work.
