Folks, when you do something like this, always think from the perspective of the person reading your page for the first time. Otherwise what you get is this informational stonewall. It's supposed to tell you something new, but instead it's abstruse and nerdy like hell.
I don't think there is any worse sin as a copywriter than assuming that the reader already knows all about the topic at hand. Not telling me how to get the cool new product you are showing off, what devices it is for, when I can get it, etc., are all leaving out huge details.
This irritated the fuck out of me, I wish they'd explain what the hell it is.
Turns out, it's what happens if you swipe from the bottom up in Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, but I think it might be a broader thing (I can imagine it works with glasses).
Same here. I thought it was an app initially after reading about it. They should highlight that it comes with Jelly Bean and not as a separate add-on. Or state that an app is coming soon for devices on Android 2.x and 4.0x.
This is more than strange for a page which has 'landing' in the URL (www.google.com/landing/now/). Vague video, vague texts and no hints as what am I supposed to do with this Now-thing, or even what it actually is. Left me totally clueless of what to do next.
Also, I wonder if Now is going to be available in the future for Google customers with devices other than Android or maybe even as a web-app or iGoogle widget.
It comes with Android 4.1
I flashed a Jelly Bean ROM today that came out on xda-developers. You access Google Now by swiping up on the lockscreen. Uploaded a screenshot here- http://s18.postimage.org/7obav45sp/Screenshot.png
