If you remember seeing something online, you'll be able to find it faster and from any computer with Web History.

Better yet, imagine having this wealth of information work for you to make searching for new information easier and faster. Imagine always knowing exactly where you saw something online, like that priceless YouTube video of your friend attempting to perform dance moves from a bygone age. Imagine being able to search over the full text of pages you've visited online and finding that one particular quote you remember reading somewhere months ago.

Printed and bound together, the web pages you'll visit in just one day are probably bigger than the book sitting on your night table. I'll probably visit more than 100 web pages today, and so will hundreds of millions of people. Posted by Payam Shodjai, Product Manager for Personalization
