scary, and interesting, that it shows that on Saturday I went to the park and back with the girls, then later i went and got my hair cut and home. however, I'm on payg, so don't have internet turned on, just use wireless at home and work, and i also don't have GPS turned on :(

4g on all the time and GPS most of the time and that link brings up 'no location history' for as far back as August 1st which is as far back as I've bothered looking.

That's on a contract smartphone, on O2.

I used to be with it, but then they changed what `it` was.
Now, what I`m with isn`t it, and what`s `it` seems weird and scary

odd, a few of us at work were surprised, there was a few anomalies, of ppl having travelled miles away from home, when they hadn't, but it accurately pinpointed another colleagues 3 peaks attempt, and his trip him to Poland!

I'd be tempted to buy some if it didn't involve giving M$ some money ;)
