Google Now and your location based apps won't work if you do this though. If you just want to reduce the wakelocks from Maps then go to Maps>Settings>Location Settings> Untick report from this device. This method everything still works except for Location History.
Alternately for folks that like to use latitude you can use the app Backitude, gives you granular settings for reporting.

Thanx guys. I don't use latitude, but now I disabled gnow and unticked settings in maps, so let's see what happens.

Google now won't check song ID takes me to Wikipedia instead

When I say what's this song it takes me to a Wikipedia page for ''this song'' rather than listening and telling me what song is.
Anyone got any idea what is going wrong?

Check the "widgets" row and put the "What's this song" widget in your homescreen, use that instead.
