Yeah this is exactly the sort of use I think we're going to see become most common, especially tools that allow you to ask about news, events, social media, etc. 'what have my friends been talking about recently? Did Janet ever post a resolution to the thing with her mom?'

'What happened with those ships that crashed in the canal, did they get cleared?' or 'im thinking of going to Paris in July, what's been happening there and what's the weather like' and it's able to sum it up, tell you about things you might want to know more about based on your interests.

Also being able to actually sort and filter 'just miss me with the football news', 'just ignore any posts about my friends kids or bullshit about anniversaries, birthdays and stuff' - might make social media enjoyable to use.
