As for you, it didn't handle my locations at all. It picked up my home and work locations. Great. Except it kept showing me bus and train times after the bus or train in question had left. It kept showing me sports results - I'd rather read the phone book. It pretty much never showed me the information I'd like to see, and made it far harder to find the information I needed then and there vs. just bringing up the apps and bookmarks I already have.
Their voice recognition still has a <20% recognition rate for my accent (English w/Scandinavian accent), and that definitively does not make it any more useful.
And this is my problem with Google Now. The concept isn't useful to me. Just because I googled a sports team once doesn't mean I constantly want updates about that team. Just because I looked up a company's stock one day doesn't mean I want to know what the stock is doing every day. Google Now doesn't seem to understand that.
Granted, the flight updates are a really cool feature. But the service as a whole is too noisy to be generally useful.

Maybe in a few more years.
