Why Google Web History Is Enabled by Default, Google Operating System (June 4)
Reminder - Google personalizes results according to web history even if you don't have an account or you are not logged into the one you have. It uses "up to 180 days of signed-out search activity linked to your browser's cookie, including queries and results you click."
Google Web History keeps track of Google searches and which results were viewed or bookmarked. [The article doesn't mention that Google will also track, if you agree, all the web sites you visit whether through Google or not.
