Oh, just as I was randomly catching up on last week's news, I missed this new feature of Google Now: http://www.droid-life.com/2013/06/26/google-nows-new-tv-info...

So they're already implementing uPnP or some sort of MAC address identification to make a mental map of the devices and media devices in your home and can already make recommendations for your actions/tasks/behaviors based on that. Nuts, that code is in place, waiting to be leveraged in cool ways.

Yeah, I'm sure Google's fucked.

>What is it you don't understand?

Actually, any of what that garbled mess was at the beginning of that reply? Custom app/searchbox, wtf does that even mean? The article actually goes out of it's way to talk about how Siri sucked when it was used as a standalone app. >_<

I wasn't just talking about Siri.

I wasn't just talking about Siri.

Apple can customize the UI and the search results on iOS devices if they want. Apple can take Google's search results (without Google's ads) or Bing/Yahoo, format it, add information from Yelp, Wikipedia, Facebook, Twitter, WolframAlpha, etc. Make this format the default "search results" and make it universally accessible from Siri, the browser, apps, and so on...

And they can make gold coins shoot out their ass.

>Apple can take Google's search results (without Google's ads)

LOL. Why I bothered even reply to this comment is a mystery. Yeah, I'm sure they can just sprinkle in that stuff and it will magically be great right? Just like Maps blew our mind as soon as they finished that very last strategic partnership, right?

BTW: Google already does all of those things. Kthanx

lol it's funny how upset you are about all these.

Maps != search

Google doesn't have a monopoly on quality data when it comes to search.

Nah, I'm laughing at how clueless and misinformed you are on basically everything in the thread so far.

"U mad" is the standard response for trolls that can't help themselves. I don't even see how what I wrote is construed as "mad".

Here, tell me more about how Apple can just screen scrape Google. I want to laugh some more.

>Another wannabe-knee-jerk-lets-copy-Apple product from Google. Why am I not surprised.

Wow. Just read through your comments, I shouldn't even be typing out these letters. You're obviously a little shit troll. Accusing a company of copying a product that hasn't even been leaked or announced or hinted at by the company. What a fucking poor persecution complex you've got.

A sad little troll that pines for Apple, laments that geeks can't get girlfriends and runs circular logic about "big government"; just shoot me.

Please stop.
