I noticed that when I upgraded to 5.1 Google was taken out of the built in bookmarks in Safari. Now only Apple, AT&T and iPhone User Guide show up on the built in bookmark list. Of course you can still Google at the top of Safari with the search box, so not sure why they removed it from the bookmarks?

Your thoughts....

Read the Help file and add your own bookmark for Google.
 
That shouldn't be a surprise, given the intense competition level between Apple and Google. Personally, Google's flagrant use of personal data is worrisome. It's bad enough you are vulnerable no matter what you do, but if you read Google's privacy policy, they make no bones they are targeting you for ads, like it was some sort of benefit of dealing with them.
