Google Dashboard Aims to Alleviate Privacy Fears by Showing Data Collection
Google has released a new product called Google Dashboard. This allows users to see what data has been collected on an account associated with a number of Google products. So, if you use GMail, YouTube, and Reader on the same account, you'll see the data collected for each service.
You can check the data collected for your Google account at Google.com/dashboard. You'll have to sign in, even if you're already signed into your Google account. Also, it can take several seconds to load all of the data - and while 20 products are available to view in Google Dashboard, not all of Google's services are included just yet.

This information has been available previously... seems like a PR exercise for their storage of info. What about the IP addresses filed with search queries... they know quite a deal about us and group behavior.
they are being smart with this given the government scrutiny - but will the smoke and mirrors work?

If the info provided by Google is genuine and reflect what they really have, then I must say that I am impressed by google's openness.
