Google’s Big Brotherish History Project
By Mark Evans | April 22, 2007
In theory, the ability to look back at all the places you’ve been on the Web is a fascinating concept. It’s like look at a digital album showing every place you’ve been over the years, and how your surfing habits have changed. If this is something you’re curious about, check out Google History. While I can see the benefit of having easy access to you Web history, somehow the idea that Google has a database of everywhere I’ve been seems very 1984/Big Brother-ish. To get Google History, you need to sign on, have the Google toolbar on your browser and PageRank enabled. For more details, check out Ars Technica and the Google Blog.
