Today Google Labs released their newest beta offering: My Search History [My Search History discussion group]

As the picture shows above, once you login to your global Google account, you’ll see a text navbar in the upper right of the page which says “My Search History” and your Google account name (possibly your Gmail account name).

There’s not a lot to the actual My Search History interface. It’s a calendar with a light green to dark green color meter to identify the number of searches made. Yes, for those wondering, by making searches through the MakeYouGoHmm custom toolbar, the Google searches will be remembered. Also, what links you click on, for example when I did an egosurf for “TDavid” and then clicked on th first result, Things That … Make You Go Hmm showed in the results. This could be handy for remembering good search results if you use multiple machines and want to remember a bookmark.

This is one of those Google Labs releases that’s like “hmm, you mean they didn’t already have this?” Glad to see it. Thanks Google!
