I just got to tour Big Ben in July when I visited London. The mechanism is an amazing piece of technology and the precision achieved at the time of development was crazy. Also being able to stand next to the bell as it rang was truly an awesome experience.
I use it in Phoenix, Arizona and think it's one of Google's best products. It's not something you have to actively check to get the benefits and the cards it delivers are usually relevant and useful (like weather, travel times to appointments and location based information cards). IMO, you're (likely) already giving Google so much personal information, Now is their way of making something useful of it for you.

We don't test code where I work, but I'm strongly for testing.
