BOUNCE STEPS
Introducing Google Now (Official Android Channel) / Siri vs. Google Search (TechnoBuffalo channel)
Google Now is one of the Jelly Bean's new features. It's supposed to "get you just the right information at just the right time"; e.g. traffic data, appointments, flights, weather, translation, currency etc. (more information on Google Now landing page). Another Android 4.1 impressive feature is the new voice assistant currently called Google Search or Google Voice Search that somehow is a part of Google Now. In the review that has been done by Jon Rettinger from Techno Buffalo, Google Search responses a bit faster than Siri and its voice is more human like.
