To create a Google Profile
1. Go to Google Profiles http://www.google.com/profiles
2. Click on ‘Create my profile’ and log in using your gmail address and password
3. Fill in the boxes and upload a picture (don’t forget to add your superpower)
4. Add your links (twitter, facebook etc). If you are unsure, Google will also scour the web for you and see if it can find anything that resembles your profile on other sites and ask if you want to add them, although that may take it some time.
5. Customise your url
6. Voila – you’re done! And you can change your details anytime.
