Google is working on a feature that would push stories relevant to a user's location direct to their smartphones and tablets in order to build greater community bonds and encourage people to take a greater involvement in their neighbourhoods.
Google Now was one of the standout features of the latest version of the Android operating system (Jelly Bean) and is a contextually aware program that understands a user's likes, dislikes, routine and physical location and uses that information to automatically push relevant information to his or her device.
