Today the big G (that’s google to you and me) released a video of the much hyped Google Operating System. Don’t get your hopes up though, the video itself is very ’sketchy’, literally. The video is a walk through of what the chrome OS will be all about when it’s released sometime next year.

If you have been pondering how much information Google has about you, the Google Dashboard can give you a clue to answering the question. The big “G” has launched a service that processes the data stored by various Google services you use and then provides a summary of the personal settings and privacy of each of them.

The Crackulous iPhone App does exactly what the name suggests (well the name is a bit weird if you normally use ‘crack’ in a different context).
