It can also till the soil with it's tap roots, fix nitrogen, and be grown on either side of alternative "primary" crops (it can be grown before and after most growing seasons). This would be a huge economic boon for the South, and protect the Gulf of Mexico from run-off contamination."Apr 22 10:42

schestowitzGoogle collects way too much data. They know what people search (Google Search), which websites they visit (Analytics, Google+ buttons), whom they know (Google Contacts, Android, GMail), where they go (Android, Google Maps), whom they talk to (Hangouts, GMail), and whatnot. This is not a lot, this is really too much IMHO.Apr 23 17:35
schestowitzAny big data collection will sooner or later be exploited, not only by the collecting company itself but also by third parties like other commercial entities or governmental agencies.
