Re: Google
One way to minimize the information Google can collect on you is to change your default search engine to Bing. In Safari this is an easy operation. In the search text entry field at the top right in the tool bar, click on the magnifying glass symbol and towards the bottom of the drop down select Bing. The change is not ideal as your personal search information is now directed to Microsoft, but if you like me have a gmail account, it will minimise the amount of information held by a single company. Googles slogan, don't be evil these days only holds ironic value. :-) Cheers, Carlo On 27/01/2012, at 9:58 , Lloyd White wrote: Googles has sent a happy message about its new privacy policy.

Re: Google - only if you are logged in.
I was concerned on this matter but found a link: http://www.washingtonpost.com/business/technology/faq-googles-new-privacy-policy/2012/01/24/gIQArw8GOQ_story.html Inquiry: I don’t have a Google Account, but use Google search. Am I affected?:No. The new policy only applies to people who have a Google Account linked to services such as Gmail, Picasa or YouTube and are signed in. So a simple use of Google without logging in will not collect an information.

I now have the site more than bookmarked, it is added as a launch item on my iPhone screen (if you want to do the same, while browsing the page in Safari, click the curved arrow icon in the bottom toolbar and select Add to Home Screen). Pity about the incomprehensible web address -- 136213.mobi. Unless it is a convention I am not familiar with.

It is interesting Eugene when I searched with TransPerth I only got Transit Guru TransPerth and not hundreds. When I searcher Trans Perth I only got TransitTimes Perth. I'm still on Snow Leopard.

As I lurker on the thread I just purchased TransitTimes Perth. Not previously knowing these apps existed, I used to use the Maps app for a poor man's version of the same thing as it also gives bus and train departure times.
