Abstract: A computing system is described that obtains, based at least in part on information included in at least one previous communication associated with a user of a computing device, an indication of a future location and a future time and event information associated with the future location and the future time. The computing system obtains a duration of time for the user to travel from a current location of the computing device to the future location, and, based at least in part on the duration of time, obtains a departure time at which the user is predicted to need to depart from the current location in order to arrive at the future location by an arrival time based on the event. The computing system outputs, for transmission to the computing device, an indication associated with the event and including information indicative of the departure time.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed herein that generally involve storing a historical record of a user's maps searches (a maps history), and providing a user with relevant information about elements in their maps history based on the location of a mobile device associated with the user. Such elements can include generic queries, specific queries, direction queries, click entries, places, and so forth. In some examples, the mobile device's location is provided to a server, which in turn processes the user's maps history to determine which elements from the maps history may be relevant to the mobile device's current location. Elements that are determined to be of possible relevance, and/or information relating thereto, can then be presented to the user, in many instances decreasing the time and effort required for the user to locate map-based information for which they are searching.

Abstract: A computing system is described that can automatically provide weather forecast information to a user based on the user's expected future location. In some embodiments, the methods can include predicting a future location of a user and storing the future location in the memory, fetching weather forecast information associated with the future location of the user, and outputting, to a mobile device associated with the user, the weather forecast information associated with the future location of the user.

Abstract: A computing system is described that obtains, based at least in part on information included in previous communication associated with a user of a computing device, an indication of a future location and a future time and further obtains information associated with an event which is associated with the future location and the future time. The computing system obtains a duration of time for the user to travel from a current location of the computing device to the future location, and further obtains, based at least in part on the duration of time, a departure time at which the user is predicted to need to depart from the current location in order to arrive at the future location by an arrival time that is determined based at least in part on the future time. The computing system outputs, for transmission to the computing device, an indication of the departure time.

Abstract: A computing system is described that can update a query on behalf of a user. In some embodiments, the user's internet search history can be stored and processed by a server to identify one or more user interest queries. For example, queries that are specific enough to trigger the display of an inline result can be identified as a user interest query. The server can maintain a profile for the user that includes the user interest queries. Later on, the user's context can be received by the server. This can include the user's current location and/or the local time at that location. User interest queries determined to be relevant to the user's context can be updated, and the results can be automatically provided to the user. The user can thus be provided with relevant, updated information without having to manually repeat a past query.

Abstract: A computing system is described that obtains, based at least in part on information included in at least one previous communication associated with a user of a computing device, an indication of a future location and a future time and event information associated with the future location and the future time. The computing system obtains a duration of time for the user to travel from a current location of the computing device to the future location, and, based at least in part on the duration of time, obtains a departure time at which the user is predicted to need to depart from the current location in order to arrive at the future location by an arrival time based on the event. The computing system outputs, for transmission to the computing device, an indication associated with the event and including information indicative of the departure time.
