With Web History, you'll be able to: 

*       View and manage your web activity.
You know that great web site you saw online and now can't find? From now on,
you can. With Web History, you can view and search across the full text of
the pages you've visited, including Google searches, web pages, images,
videos and news stories. You can also manage your web activity and remove
items from your web history at any time. 
*       Get the search results most relevant to you.
Web History helps deliver more personalized search results based on what
you've searched for on Google and which sites you've visited. You might not
notice a big impact on your search results early on, but they should
steadily improve over time as you use Web History. 
*       Follow interesting trends in your web activity.
Which sites do you visit frequently? How many searches did you do between 10
a.m. and 2 p.m.? Web History can tell you about these and other interesting
trends on your web activity.
