I played with the Glympse app again this weekend (free in the Google Play store). You can set up a favorite, "work to home" for instance, and one button starts it up. It runs in the background and I can start up Strava also if I want. My spouse gets an email and/or text that I'm leaving and can track the ride from a link in the message. It works as advertised!
I wouldn't do that every commute of course, but working late or in severe weather conditions it seems like it would be considerate and reassuring.

I don't know if you're joking, but for the record this is wrong.
