Web History Follow-up
In episode 10 of the GTP I mentioned how Google Web History can be extended to save all of your Web browsing activity, which in turn could help you in your research.
But what if you don’t want your Web history saved?
If for any reason you don’t want Google to save your Web History (Google searches or complete browsing activity) you can opt out without affecting your other Google services.
To prevent Google from tracking your Web activity, go to My Account from your Google Personalized Start Page (now called iGoogle), or click the my services link in GMail.
At the top of the page click the Edit link located to the right of the My services heading. Here you can opt out of the Web History service by clicking the Delete Web History link listed under the Remove a Service section.
