Google has introduced a new feature called 'Google Profile', which lets users present themselves on Google products and control how they appear on google, tell others a bit more about who they are to other google users. Using Google Profile, it is possible to create a personal page that links to your blog or other profiles and keep family and friends up to date with your contact information and pictures.
You can share your web content in one central location while including links to your blog, online photos, and other profiles such as social networking sites. Since you control what others see, your profile won't display any private information unless you've added it to your profile.By setting your Google profile to show your full name, you can allow people to find you more easily by enabling your profile to be searched by name.
Chances are that you might already have a Google profile for yourselve if you had ever written reviews on Google Maps or created articles on Google Knol or shared Google Reader items, or added books to your Google Book Search library.
