        Just in case you hadn't erased all your stuff in igoogle ,you never know what they will do with all data stored ;) :

        [QUOTE]Google announced through its blog that several of its services including iGoogle will be retired due to "the unforeseen evolution of web and mobile apps and the erosion of the need for the site." iGoogle will retire on November 1, 2013. The mobile version retired on July 31, 2012.[16] All of the personal data stored in other Google products will continue to be available via those products, including Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Finance, Google Docs (now Google Drive), Google Bookmarks, and Google Tasks.[/QUOTE]

          Google advice users to use widgets instead of igoogle. They have even removed igoogle from the default page unless you go to internet options and type "-www.google.co.uk/ig" and store.

            I read about some widgets which had several malwares (like weathertogo). They are doing a big cleaning about all those widget (they were spamming ads)

            If you had any doubt, now they offer you to host your website ,and they will keep an eye on your data :)
            [QUOTE]For a limited time, Google is offering a customized domain name and one year of Web hosting absolutely free.
            In other words, here's a soup-to-nuts solution for getting your business online, one with a price that's impossible to beat.
            In addition to a customized domain name (along the lines of "widgetmasters.com," depending on what's available) and a hosted Web site for one full year, you get a complete Web site courtesy of Intuit's site-building service.[/QUOTE]
            It's still a very good offer imho.

                The new policy of google :hxxp://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/

                [QUOTE][B]What Google's New Policy Means for You[/B]
                A preview of the new Google policy , which Google has made available online, explains some of the information Google collects and will soon conflate. It includes "information you give us" (personal information that you have to provide in order to sign up for certain free services), information about how and when you use the services, which devices you use, your location, and more. A big part of the body of data is your Google.com search history.
                Google's stated purpose in bringing together the information it collects about you is to improve its services, but it also enables the company to deliver more personalized ads and personalized search results… which not everyone wants. Luckily, there is at least one way to avoid that.

                That's incredible : Who has our data and how much do they have and with whom are they sharing it?:confused:
