Kind of interesting -I came across this yesterday.

So, I clicked on the "Find out what Google guesses is your age and gender" and found out that I am, according to Google, male and aged 18-24.
Not sure what's making it think that though...
Anyone else getting highly erroneous results?
The BF, though, he's more privacy conscious than me -he shuns Google for Duckduckgo.com

But hey, my kids use it too.

I'm not sure if Google can track where you go on the internet, but rather just what things you use it to search for.
Heh, but if it thinks I'm male and age 18-24, then I guess that really makes me a
