Would you use Google Home?
Google this week announced it's newest product, Google Home. According to the Google Home website, the new product is "a voice-activated home product that allows you and your family to get answers from Google, stream music, and manage everyday tasks."
From what I can see, Google is aiming its new product to be an integrated part of your daily life. Whether it's playing your favourite song, telling you what is on your calendar for the day or if there are traffic delays on your usual route to work, Google Home will have you covered.
It's also clear from the video below that Google is aiming to make its device more integrated into your household, allowing you to control heating and cooling and turning on and off lights around the house with a simple voice command. The likely add-on integration looks to be the commericalisation of the product, with Google looking to implement easy ways for you to make dinner reservations, send flowers to family members or book a flight in a matter of seconds.
Watch the video below and decide for yourself if you would use Google Home.
Drew,
I am not a fan of phones and do not carry a mobile so there is little chance I will be conversing with a pot parked on a side table.
Take it easy.
