Google Might Really Know a Lot About You ?

What Google knows about You ?
If you use the Chrome browser, it may know every Web site you’ve typed into the address bar. If You Login to your Gmail and Search the Web, Watch Youtube Video, Use Picasa, Use Google Maps, Read Google Books, blogs you’ve subscribe to, the chats in gtalk, the File you send through gmail, the contacts you have, your address, adsense revenue, so so many more. Well that’s pretty much everything, enough to track you down. Well all of this Reminds me of movies

Whats so Unique about Wolfram Alpha that Google Lacks
For now it only works in English, but in most cases the terms you use to search the names and numbers will be, or words that you probably conventional (or your friend) know in English.
Let’s start with something simple: your date of birth. Let’s assume that you was born on 10 May 1976. In a few seconds, you will know that the person’s age is 33 years and six days, or 12,059 days, or 1722 weeks and 5 days. We also know that the writer Rob Malda was born the same day that you and the sun was born at 6:17 and began at 17:22. Oh, and the moon was full.
The Alpha Wolfram knows distances – between any two points on the map. São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro are the 357.7 kilometers of each other. The sound takes 17 minutes to get from one city to another, and under 1.2 milliseconds. Awesome!

FaceBook isn’t alone here. Researchers at Cambridge University (so you know this is legit, people!) have found that nearly half of the social networking sites don’t immediately delete pictures when a user requests they be removed. In general, photo-centric websites like Flickr were found to be better at quickly removing deleted photos upon request.

Microsoft Doing Good for the World (I’d rather get Windows 7) – Browser for the Better
Okay that’s nice, but do you think that this is forcing us to download IE 8 ? Well, you could just download it and uninstall it later, so I think it’s a good thing.
Still, I would rather get Windows 7, even though it’s only a usable Vista.
What do you all think?

Rapidshare Fined $34 Million and Ordered to Filter Content
Collections society GEMA claims to represent more than 60,000 composers, authors and music publishers worldwide, protecting their copyrights. After a request by the group, The Regional Court in Hamburg has ruled that hosting service Rapidshare is forbidden from making any of 5,000 music tracks from GEMA’s collection available on the Internet.
Rapidshare was also ordered to delete any and all of those same tracks from its servers and ensure that they are not uploaded again by users. Previously Rapidshare had been using file hashes to recognize tracks that were already removed after requests from GEMA, to ensure that they weren’t uploaded again. The court decided that the technique used was ineffective.
The court found Rapidshare guilty of breaches of copyright law and ordered it to pay damages of €24 million ($34 million).
“The decision of the Hamburg Regional Court is a milestone in GEMA’s fight against the illegal use of musical works on the Internet,” said Dr. Harald Heker, Chief Executive Officer of GEMA. “We are confident that in this way we will be able to reduce the illegal use of the GEMA repertoire on the Internet to a negligible level,” he added.
Understandably, Rapidshare sought to downplay the ruling. Bobby Chang, COO of RapidShare, Switzerland, said: “We do not consider the court’s decision to be a breakthrough. As other proceedings in similar disputes with GEMA have shown, there is considerable disparity amongst the individual courts in some cases.”
Noting that the courts of appeal “tend to restrict the scope of the decisions made by the lower courts,” Chang said it would make more sense to offer music fans the right products and services at the right price to “open up a new source of income for music-markets on the Internet.”

StumbleUpon Increases its Inbox Limit to 500 Shouts, Finally
StumbleUpon now Allows 500 Shouts/Share PagesToday I noticed something new in my stumbled upon toolbar. Well it was what I had always wished for, i.e. more inbox space. Previously stumbleupon allowed only allowed a maximum of 99 shared pages in the toolbar. This was good but it also meant you would miss messages and shares from some friends after your inbox is full.
But Now That Problem Seems to have been solved since the Toolbar now shows upto 500 Shouts or Shares. Which I think is quite enough even for a very active stumbler. Well It does mean More shouts from Friends…
Well Nice Update from the StumbleUpon team I would Say.
You might have seen StumbleUpon has expanded their share feature to allow you to send a stumble to all your friends. In case you don’t know how to use it…
