Love the way it asks for information Google already knows :P

Not only does Google know my email address, it's displayed in the top right corner of the page!

Location could be taken from many places, most of which admittedly they probably couldn't use due to privacy, but most browsers support Geolocation.

It's nice that they are asking for the information even though they don't need to.

Google's new services being copies of other popular services. If they can't buy the original and fold it into Google then they do the next best thing and copy it, then favouritise it with Google Search, and leave the original to suffer a slow death.
