Google mobile and desktop search history now in sync

Google has updated its mobile search service enabling search history for registered users. The good thing about it is that this feature is in sync with your desktop search. So when you search for “IntoMobile” on your computer and start typing “int”, you’ll get “IntoMobile” being recommended from your history.

As I said, you’ll need a Google account in order for this to work. Afterwards, you can enable/disable this feature from the “Settings” link on Google.com. In addition, you can simply opt not to save searches, if you feel a bit paranoid. Personally, I find this super useful and have already used it. ;)

Dusan Belic

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
