Google and Me.

After long wait, Google is finally allowing users to log/view their web history and to modify searches according to the web pages they browse and text they search.

Lots of features have been incorporated by the Google along with the basic storing of the search and click history. At any time you can remove certain links/searches which you won’t like to being displayed in your history. Resume/pausing this logging is just a click away. Google zietgeist was only effective in displaying the top queries over a span of time by all the Google users. User was not able to view his top queries, or the history of the links he visited. Also, it syncs bookmarks into the Google in real time manner. Well, good for me, as I never liked Delicious because of the lack of drag and drop feature which I can very well do in Firefox. I have all my bookmarks on Firefox toolbar, and I just need to drag a tab to the folder I want it to bookmark in. Well, you can always sync your Firefox bookmarks with Delicious, but as it is not realtime, it does not sounds a very good solution for me. Well, now as Google offering to sync the bookmarks in real time I don’t think I would ever feel the need of delicious. Still, I hope that delicious Firefox toolbar developer will incorporate drag and drop feature in it very soon. :)

Also, with Google launching its new AJAX API for feeds, I would finally be able to add a javascript support for feeds on my site. I mean, support through which I can display feeds on my site. As my server administrator doesn’t allow me to use any server side scripting language, I was not able to do that previously. Well, Thanks again Google. :)
