Today’s Tekzilla Daily is brought to you by Audible. Welcome to Tekzilla Daily, I’m

Google offers a bunch of services, many of which collect your personal data, whether
it is photos, friends, phone numbers or voice mails. That’s a lot of info and you might
want to save a back up off-line for later. Luckily, Google makes it an easy process called
Google Take Out, available at google.com/takeout. If you want a copy of everything, from your
contacts and circles, your profile, Google + stream, Google voice mails and texts, and
all the pages you’ve Plus One’d, just click ‘create archive’. If you want to
choose which services to download, click ‘choose services’, click which ones you want to
save and it will calculate the size of each, along with the percentage of the total that
each takes up. When you are ready, click ‘create archive’ and it will compile your content.
Then click the download button, log in one more time for security purposes and save it
to your computer. You can come back to this page for the next seven days to download your
info, after which, it will expire. So make sure you’ve got all your data backed up
with the help of Google Take Out.
Now, if you have a tip for us to pass along to the rest of the TZ crew, let us know: Tekzilla@Revision3.com.
And as always tekzilla.com… it’s the place to find more tips, tricks, product reviews
and how to’s.
