Interesting point. It seems like not everyone has it, but it is not connected to the version. I have the stable relase of chrome, but for me the standard app page is gone. have a look here at the Chromium blog: http://blog.chromium.org/2013/08/another-step-toward-faster-...

I have to say I really liked the magic of automatically filling the app launcher. I first nearly didn't notice, because it the apps seemed very obvious to me. It took me a minute to realize that this came from my browsing history and booksmarks. Good work!

The Google algorithm is to blame. This was probably the version, where the false data came from: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Amy_Wilentz&d.... There is no big mistake in the style, it's just that the birthday is missing.
The Google algorithm took the results from the middle of the text, even though the birthdates are always right behind the name. I guess they did something like take the first dates instead of just focusing on the part behind the name. This way the algorithm was more flexible but on the other hand as we see more likely to make mistakes.

And as everyone knows the word count tool initiated the downfall of microsoft word empire. Seriously, I don't think it was a bad decision to kill the reader. Not a nice one, but I think certainly not one where Google is going to learn a lesson about.

If you start with a minor chord and always follow the most likely chords, you end up having the exact chord progression from the song. They were right after all.

Oh boy, that means ironically I get Google Now on my iPhone probably earlier than my girlfriend on Android (if she ever gets it). Android update hell.
