How to Delete your Google Web History (Easily)

This is a question sent to us Ms. Melinda Coursel of Atalanta, USA.

We are all surprised when we open our Gmail or Blogger account and the new privacy policy of Google pops-up for us to read and understand. Though it sounds reassuring, we are still concern of how much this search giant keeps our personal data. Well, the main reason of Google’s “improvement” of its privacy policy is for easy sharing of information to its various services such as displaying your Google Plus profile photo in a search result displaying your Blogger blog post.

Google whether you are concern or not gets much information from our searches. Our search histories are actually telling more stories about us including our habits and even our health concerns. Your likes and favorites will be recorded to Google’s powerful database. If this sounds unfavorable to you, here’s how to delete your Google Web History so easily:

  • Log-in your account at Google History.
  • Lastly, click the “Remove all Web History” button.

You’ve just deleted everything Google recorded about you and you just actually pauses their robot starting from that moment in recording Web History again. However, you can click the “Resume” button below the page to start Web History again.

You can repeat the process if you have two or more Google accounts.

This action will delete your Web History at the time you push REMOVE but it will still continue when you press RESUME.

If you are comfortable with how Google keeps your personal information and wants to take advantage of the inter-connectivity of its services, you can just forget about Web History.

You can also choose not to share delicate information in your Google Profile to avoid privacy problems later on.

How to Play CrossFire Philippines like a Pro (Tutorial with video)

CrossFire Philippines is an online first person shooting game which resembles the old CounterStrike. However, this online game has lots of purchasable items and you can create a character or an account which will increase in rank every time you play.
