I feel your pain. I'm tired of all these attempts to monitize data with apps, Web pages and adds. I'd rather have a single platform I could just type in weather @ 99999 to see the forecast. Kind of like SMS 10 years ago but with graphical and audio response capability.
And yes, I'd pay money for the service.
- slouch 10y agoThat's Google. Your example weather query works today.
- andybak 10y agoThis is where I'm a bit baffled by the implication this is some hot new thing. I've been using Google as a smart command line for a couple of years now. The speech interface on my phone was an incremental improvement to this. There have been small improvements but the real breakthrough was a couple of years back when Google got good enough that i started typing search queries in plain English for most things.
