You can stop thinking now. That’s Google’s job.
Google took a step toward enabling us to outsource our brains with a new feature that taps into our personal data to automatically offer advice on what we should do or know next. The couch potato web is here, so just lean back and let Google take things from here.
Figuring out when to leave for a meeting, what to order at a new restaurant, or when to squeeze in a trip to the gym can all be decided for you by Google Now, a search feature for smartphones unveiled Wednesday at Google’s I/O developer conference. Google Now makes personal assistants look like milkmen — quaint symbols of a simpler, slower time.

Woman Sues Capital One, Says Debt Collectors Went After Her Late Husband’s Discharged Debt

But one Wisconsin woman said none of that matters. Her late husband declared bankruptcy two years ago and died in May, but she said the debt collectors still haven’t given up.
The woman, Toni Nieto of Milwaukee, sued Capital One Bank and Phillips & Cohen Associates, a Wilmington-based debt collection company. Nieto claims that after her husband, Trinidad, died in May at the age of 65, she started getting letters and brochures in the mail from Phillips & Cohen, which said that the collection company needed to “resolve outstanding accounts which the deceased had with our client,” according to court records.
