Google dives into personal analytics with new Account Activity feature

We recently saw Stephen Wolfram reveal what he called the personal analytics of his life (built from decades of meticulous data collection), and it looks like Google is now going some way towards making that easier for you to do yourself. It rolled out its new Account Activity feature today, an opt-in tool (still technically in beta) that tracks your activity across Google's services and delivers a report each month on your internet use. That includes things like the number of emails sent and received, your most contacted email addresses, information about your search history (if you have it enabled), stats from Google Latitude, and the different browsers and devices you've used to sign into Google services. What's more, that's apparently just the beginning -- Google says it plans to incorporate even more services over the next few months.

Students, parents celebrate 100th birthday of private school founder

Students, parents celebrate 100th birthday of private school founder

Houston Chronicle Copyright 2012 Houston Chronicle. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed.

Published 03:33 p.m., Tuesday, March 20, 2012

Students and parents of The Galloway School in Friendswood packed the gymnasium for a 100th birthday salute to the school's founder, Marie Galloway. When Principal Bonnie Cerace led the crowd in a cheer, Galloway beamed and then smiled broadly as she posed for photos with students. Galloway decided not to make any special birthday requests this year. Sadly, her husband died before the school opened, but Marie continued the work and The Galloway School opened in 1993 with 19 students. Today, the school has 243 pupils ranging from pre-K to eighth grade. Galloway has a fairly regular presence at the school, driving in from her Memorial area home several times per month. [...] I don't have a lot of friends of long standing, but I know a lot of people and have covered a lot of ground.
