Two things:

1) I generally don't want to do what everyone else in a given area is doing. I prefer the off-the-beaten-path stuff. Will Google know this?

2) Will Google monetize the inclusion in the "local hot spot tonight" recommendations?

Yes. The kind of recommendations I want are things like: "Go for a walk in this park you've never been to. There are benches to read on." and "Go for a bike ride on this route. You'll see parts of the city you'd normally never see."

I don't have details on this, but I can't imagine it'd be less personalized for your off-the-beaten-path stuff than it is now, where we get the same as everyone else.
