How Google might track your surfing behavior


Last week, we informed you that Google tracks user behavior to determine the ranking of web sites. Google has recently released web accelerator program that is intended to make surfing faster for broadband users. Google might use this program to track the surfing behavior of people who have the web accelerator installed.
This means that Google now has at least four different tools that allow Google to track which web sites you visit: the Google toolbar, Google Desktop, Gmail and the new Google web accelerator.
These tools could help Google to collect the user information that is mentioned in the patent specification. As soon as you login to any Google service (Gmail, AdWords, etc.) this information can be assigned to your name and address.
