"Much-hyped"? I get the ZDNet daily newsletter e-mail, read Slashdot regularly, and waste way too much time on the internet generally, and this is the very first I've heard of "GoogleMe." So they aren't hyping it terribly well.
As for interest, Google completely lost me as a customer for ANY social networking project with the disastrous, obnoxious, and offensive way they handled Buzz and the criticism it received upon its launch. When your CEO has announced that privacy is dead and we all need to just get over it, that makes me VERY leery that they'd include much in the way of privacy protection for any social networking project. Let me know when they can Schmidt and the moron project manager who introduced (and screwed up) Buzz, and then maybe I'll think they've decided to take complaints seriously. Until then, they can waste all the money they want on new social networking projects, and none of it will get me to try it out.
