Dear Vergies, You’re Doing It Wrong

theverge

September 20, 2014, 10:43(EDT) By Eric (a.k.a. TweakHound)

thevergeOn my Saturday morning perusal of the major tech journals I came across, The Verge – Here’s how well Google’s search engine knows you.
I don’t understand how in 2014 folks aren’t at least configuring the basics in Google settings. Heck, maybe they just don’t care. I’m not naive enough to think that the info below is all the info Google has on me (I have an Android phone and 3 Gmail accounts). Certainly if I really cared I wouldn’t be using any Google services. But in the name of all that is Geeky, configure the basics Vergies! If you need more info on how to do it, you can Google it 😉
p.s. – I mean no disrespect calling The Verge employees Vergies. I was gonna use Vergans but I figured they wouldn’t like the sound of that :mrgreen:
