Google on Thursday announced the launch of Google Dashboard, an online utility that offers one view into all Google products a customer uses. This is intended to give users more transparency and control over their data, the Internet search giant claimed. Dashboard is really an information aggregator. After a user logs into his or her Google account, he or she can access Dashboard to see a summary of data for each Google product he or she uses — Gmail activity, YouTube activity, Docs activity, etc. Dashboard also provides direct links to privacy and control settings.
