Google Assistant rolling out Reminders Hub
To add a reminder in Google Assistant, the only way is to use voice command or manually type in in the Assistant page earlier. Google is finally rolling out a hub for Reminders for users who don't like to use voice commands to set it.
You will see the reminders you set over there with a few details, including the date and time you set for it to remind you and whether it recurring or not. Reminders also has check box next to them, you can tap on it to mark it as complete. You can edit them by opening it and edit the name, date, time and more. It also include a floating action button to create a new reminder.
By the way, hope to see Material You redesign with this when it rollout. (XDA-Developers)

Google Chrome is working on a sidebar search feature, similar to Microsoft Edge
Google has been borrowing many Microsoft Edge features, one of the recent one is about site card. Next, Google is going to borrow the sidebar search feature from Microsoft Edge, again.
It was first spotted by Leopeva64, the feature will display relevant search results inside a small side panel without needing to open a new tab. Also he believed it will be placed on the left side instead of right, as Chrome already has a side panel which show bookmarks and "Reading list".
Besides, Chrome Story discovered three related flags in the Chromium gerrit:
• Side search: Enables an easily accessible way to access your most recent Google search results page embedded in a browser-side panel.
• Side search clear cache when close: Clears the side search cache when the side panel is closed.
• Side search state per tab: Enables a per-tab toggled state for the side search side panel. (XDA-Developers)
