    Soon you'd have Google Life, where you can search for details like the exact moment of your birth, and how many girl/boy friends you had, how many times had you been laid, etc.

    Wow... soon Google will know more about me than I do! (I don't think that's all that difficult tho).

    Just another way to send users even more personalised ads. I start to dislike the whole Google machine, the amount of data they collect is getting dangerous. I'd try to switch to Bing, but I don't like Microsoft even more.

    Oh. I thought that this was a "search for a person to see all their profiles" feature. Phew. Carry on.

    that's the paid service for advertisers, employers, and government officials. for a small fee users can also do searches on exes and crushes. [/sarc]

    heaven help us if the above turns out to be true. the only good thing about this is that i can just not use google. now if only bing would make its map app run faster. . .

    I spend more time on my social networks as opposed to actually being social.
