The default address is www.google.com/profiles/your_user_name_here. If you are using a non-Gmail email address for your Google account, you can create a custom address. If you make something easy to remember, you can list your profile on business cards or easily link to it from other websites.

About Me
Everything you list in the About Me section is public. If you don't want your boss or your mother to see it, don't list it here.
However, it may be to your advantage to use this page as a public resume or social networking calling card. You can add information about where you live, list other websites, create a biography, and add a photo of yourself.

Enter the cities where you've lived and they are automatically listed on a map.
Private Information
The Contact info is not public. You specify which of your contacts are able to see it. You can also set up groups of contacts, such as family members and co-workers.
You either release all your contact information or none of it to the people you specify. There's no granular control over who sees which item, but Google is working on social networking services that make contact sharing granular. After you finish editing your profile, click Save changes. Your profile will start appearing in Google search results.

+ 1 Information
If you're using Google's +1 to mark websites and clippings as "+1" and share them, you'll have a +1 tab where all your +1 sites are shared. This is by design, as a plus one marks a site as publicly noteworthy. Was this page helpful?
