What information does Google sell?

  Where do you think Google gets $60 billion in revenue, if not from selling information? What do you think is the content of that information?

    They don't sell your information, they sell access to your eyeballs, _based on_ the information they have about you, combined with advertisers saying "We want to show advert X to these types of people". If they sold that information directly, they'd make a load of money today, but then none tomorrow. User information is the 'goose that lays the golden egg'.
