Personally I'm scared sh&tless of google. Way too much information (power) for any one company or entity to have. And to think, we thought Microsoft was getting too powerful years ago.

Its Love Hate. I love Google. Think the stuff they are doing, and the way they are driving and pushing innovation, is amazing... BUT... oh my, they are starting to step into a minefield. They know so much about us, as one of my colleagues said recently, 'perhaps even more than god'. where are the boundaries of privacy? What are the implications of them deciding to monetise this data much as face book are doing... why and what else... ?
Still, im happy for them to make be a more connected, more(if not slightly directed) informed individual, and if they can make me healthier too... well why not give it a punt!

I don't see any problems with this as long as it works as it is supposed to. It's voluntary, as is clicking any relevant ads they show you, so if you think you have any privacy left for some reason, just don't use it. It's no different that any of Google's other services.
@Martin: Personally, I'd love to see a Google bank, I'd imagine they could do a way better job than any of the current banks. All the current ones (I'm aware of) are brick and mortar which is out dated and creates tremendous overhead which they pass on to us as fees and higher interest, etc. I'd imagine Google could dominate with a strictly online bank system.

Hey, Big Brother crowd. Are you more or less terrified of Microsoft's equivalent project that shipped in October 2007? (http://healthvault.com)

I think it's great. What are they going to do that's so bad with my vitals.... identity theft? Hack into my brain? No. The data is completely useless. We share countless information that is much more sensitive... every day.

Does anyone else think that Google was the "big brother" that Orwell was referring to in 1984?

Google has already got the position of God in the world of the Internet. By this move, it surely becomes even as powerful as that. To some people, it may look like a red alert. Google will have every possible information about the human being, how dangerous that sounds? and that too, keeping its image clean for users. what if google gets evil one day? What do you think, Stan?

Gautam, I think you touch on a relevant issue. Who controls who has what information? No one. Government agencies can't even figure out what our banks are doing; much less what google's data mining is up to. I stay up to date with This security site so maybe they'll eventually add this as something to consider.

Google sounds like tesco to me. Tesco supermarkets.. fair enough . Tesco Value Budget funerals im not so sure about.
I dont like it when big companies "OWN" their market so much that they feel the need to dip a toe in everything else they come in contact with.
Personally I would feel really uneasy if I knew my hospital had equipment that was wired up to broadcast information straight to goole. Im sure this is for personal 'voluntary' use to start with, but if it takes off then it will spread. I don't want to be in my doctors surgery and have my dotocor ask me "Do you mind being googled??"
Yes I do!

Thats a great idea. Most of the people use google to search any information like Nike heart rate monitor. And if we can get information directly we will be very helpful. thanks to google.
