Google is getting better and better with their services. Last time they started the Gmail, and expanded its capacity greatly until other services had to follow suit. Later they enable SSL encryption on their products ranging from Gmail to Google Docs and others.
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) connections encrypt data that travels between your computer and that particular site. There would usually be a web address starting with “https” or a browser lock icon when surfing SSL encrypted sites, this technology is regularly used by online banking sites and e-commerce websites. Other sites may also implement SSL in a more limited fashion, for example, to help protect your passwords when you enter your login information.
“When you search on https://www.google.com, an encrypted connection is created between your browser and Google. This secured channel helps protect your search terms and your search results pages from being intercepted by a third party on your network. The service includes a modified logo to help indicate that you’re searching using SSL and that you may encounter a somewhat different Google search experience, but as always, remember to check the start of the address bar for “https” and your browser lock indicators. – Google Blog”
