Google Now Has The Time After Dropping the Feature

On August 29th Google dropped the time feature temporarily. In fact, I believe it was a mistake, because Google's Matt Cutts commented saying:

I asked about this; sounds like it's a temporary thing that you just happened to notice. My guess is that it will be back on within a week or so.

Matt was right, it is now back a week or so later.

In fact, it is now improved. It now sports an alarm clock icon as well as supports showing multiple times for overlapping names such as current time in london:

Google Time Feature Back

I know a lot of people were upset when Google dropped this feature, so I am glad it is back.
