Export Or Download Data Stored On Your Google Account As A Zip File: Google Takeout

http://techie-buzz.com/tech-news/google-takeout-exports-data-out-of-google.html The one thing I really admire about Google as a company is it’s open nature towards the data of it’s users.

You can export bookmarks, contacts, delete web search history and manage all the information right from your Google dashboard.
