When does Google combine Maps with Calendar to automatically include travel time? Not that I had a version of this in 1997 or anything.
@shoobe01 Forget time travel... I want to combine maps with REAL travel! Have you seen Treks? http://www.google.com/maps/about/behind-the-scenes/streetview/treks/ …

@DaveHogue Not time travel, travel time. Warn me 15 minutes before it takes that long to get there. Now /sorta/ has it. Sorta. -
@shoobe01 Doh! I totally read that backwards. LOL My Now cards have gotten more accurate based on history. They seem to learn. -
@DaveHogue But, but (!) they do their own thing. At best, I get /some/ accurate Now reminders, and later a Calendar reminder. Ecosystems! -
@shoobe01 Android has voice commands to set reminders, but I have no idea where they get stored. Now? Calendar? Ether? -
@DaveHogue All agree. I wouldn't even gripe so much if they were worse. So close to a seamless experience. -
@shoobe01 We can see where they are headed, but without knowing the complex realities of the effort, it's easy to ask "why not there YET?" -
@DaveHogue Talked to people there off and on for 12 years. Not convinced anyone is thinking of the UX of GOOGLE. Divisions, products.

@DaveHogue Treks gives me a similar problem: Why do I have to go to that URL? When I book travel, it can remind me of this instead. -
@shoobe01 Yeah, better connections are definitely possible. I'd like to be inspired by Treks then plan travel from there. Inspire me first.
