Almost two years after it updated its privacy policy, Google is still facing the wrath of European watchdogs. The Dutch Data Protection Authority (DPA) has just ended a seven-month investigation into the search giant’s practices and, similar to rulings in the UK and France, has deduced that Google isn’t doing enough to inform users about the data it “collects and combines.” The DPA accuses Google of spinning an “invisible web of our personal data without our consent” with its Search, Gmail and YouTube services, which it states in no uncertain terms “is forbidden by law.” It’s another knock for Google, which has found itself under investigation by a total of six European privacy authorities after French privacy regulator CNIL initiated action on their behalf last year. Google has said that it “respects European law,” but its commitment will be tested at the Dutch DPA’s upcoming hearing, after which the authority will decide it wants to take “enforcement measures” against the company.

Ever want to test a Chrome Web Store app without installing it? You may get your chance if a new Chromium feature find its way into Google’s commercial browser. Mountain View is experimenting with support for “ephemeral” apps that launch like regular Web Store titles, but don’t leave a footprint in Chrome or Chrome OS. Users wouldn’t even have to visit the Web Store in the first place — a recent Chromium build lets surfers launch an app directly from a Google search result page. There’s no certainty that the new try before you buy (or at least, try before you glorified bookmark) capability will actually land in Chrome’s stable channel, but it certainly wouldn’t surprise us.

It looks like there is now another company that is fighting to deliver your voicemail messages to your email’s Inbox. Much like the GotVoice company eVoice was created to let people receive their voicemail messages in a place they frequently access: their email! Using the free service you can get a private number and have those messages delivered to your Inbox. The downside to the free service is that you have to use the eVoice media player in order to listen to the messages because the file they send you is a .EVC file type. If you pay for their Plus service then you will receive your messages in .WAV file type which most audio players can handle. Plus members also get a local telephone number, access to your messages from a telephone, store messages up to 14 days, and receive text message notifications when a new voicemail arrives. While the service does sound convenient I currently only have a cellphone which means I always have access to my voicemail since I always have my phone with me. Having the messages delivered to my email would be cool at first but I am sure it would start to get annoying after awhile when I can just pickup my phone to listen to them.
