Any idea on how it knew? An entry you'd made in your calendar? Scanning your e-mail?

- jrajav 14y agoThey don't make a secret of the fact that they scan your gmail account for a lot of Google Now's functionality.
- ZeroGravitas 14y agoI believe it scans your gmail for things like flights and package deliveries.
- raleec 14y agoThis is all a YMMV situation... I find that if I google something associated with a physical address on my desktop machine, logged into google, my phone will have a card with directions to that location. That can be useful, but it's usually just an annoyance as I only wanted to call them or do something on their website. Anybody have a solution to deactivate that behaviour?
- myko 14y agoI'm pretty positive this came from Gmail. It also regularly updates me when my flights status changes (delays, gates changed, that sort of thing).
- Tyrannosaurs 14y agoI'm really torn on this. Part of me says "hey, I never [expressly] said you could look at that" and another part is saying "that's really neat".
