Google has launched software to track users of mobile phones and other wireless devices. This allows one to share their location with family and friends in 27 different countries using Google Latitude. The user can select who receives the information, and when they determine to go offline. "Fun aside, we recognize the sensitivity of location data, so we've built fine-grained privacy controls right into the application," said a Google representative. Friends can be tracked on a google map using a computer or a phone that supports google maps.
