Google search history

I compare Google's search history feature to A9 and evaluate its utility. I found it useful for retracing steps to find previously discovered links, mirroring the functionality of browser toolbar histories for personalized information retrieval.

Google search history is like a9 – it remembers your searches. But why is that useful?
