If we ever get to the Star Trek (later than the original) version of talking to the computer, you'll be able to "bark" a self destruct instruction.Presumably this is to avoid blowing people up by pressing the wrong button for the TV....

That might be because Google provide free visitor tracking tools for website developers. If you run a website and want to understand who your audience are and how they interact with your website, Google Analytics is the easy way to do that. Employing GA for that purpose means registering your website with them and putting a Javascript call to GA in the header of every page. GA then tracks the user by deploying cookies.you'll find google seems to be called by every flippin' page on t'net.
