Turn off cookies for Google
You can run Google with cookies turned off for that site. That way they can keep no more information about you than the IP address you call in from.
If you turn off cookies you can't login to Gmail or Orkut but that's a small price to pay for privacy.
This tells you that they collect information on your use of Google, Gmail and Orkut and that should make people think twice.
Google desktop search is hardly a unique product. There are lots of them, Yahoo, Microsoft and others have them too.
I've tried them all. The best one is actually from Microsoft. http://toolbar.msn.com/

If you look on Éric Lévénez Computer Languages History page you'll see that there is a link to O'Reilly. "O'REILLY has published a color version of The History of Programming Languages."
