Lot of my friends have feeling, that google is starting to have too much information about them. In my humble opinion at this moment it is too late for feelings. Google is doing wonderful work in creating new services and products. Everything under label “everything, what is free taste better”.

I know, that by writing this article i am going to set a back up to Google lovers, and i would like to add that i support Google’s actions on market. But it is just too horrible what about his user’s could Google possibly know. Google is definitely the most popular search engine on the planet. Google is creator of huge amount of internet projects, he enabled SEO experts to exist, he has showed us, that things can be done in different way. He learned companies, that not everything is about money, he shared his earnings with people by bringing new kind of advertisement, etc. But every coin have 2 sides. I would like to share that second one.

What exactly does Google have from allowing users to freely use his services and projects ? Google has learned, that the informations can be the most expensive article, so he started to study behaviour of his users. This study has helped Google to make it’s services even better. Google communicate with all his users, by dozens of official blogs (every project has it’s own blog), or by Google Groups. Just some people (some intern employees) does know, which data is Google collecting, and for what purpose is he using them. I am going to act like one of them, and i will try to show you what can Google possibly know about you by getting his data about you from his services.

He does know everything about us, even more than we do. Our secrets are in safe (yet). Today, he is our helper, but what about tomorrow ? Google is information King, be scared!
