Google search gets more personal with flight status, packages, photos, and more

Encouraged by results of its yearlong "field trial," Google is bringing personalized results from Gmail, Google Calendar, and Google+ directly into Google search.

Users will be able to get information about flights, reservations, and package deliveries, among other categories. The new search results, which previously required opting into a trial, are now included by default for signed-in users unless they opt out. It's part of an effort to ensure Google's results stay relevant as "smart calendars" and other personal organizer apps work to elbow traditional search out of the way.
