If I pasted my entire history in here, your browser would crash probably. :p JK, maybe not.

According to word: (Default Office 2008? settings... Calibri 11, multiple spaced?, etc...)
Pages 941
Words 18,439
Characters (no spaces) 1,672,497
Characters (with spaces) 1,672,515
Paragraphs 18,366
Lines 27,232


So... Yeah, anyone else care to share? :p It's great to keep a vast browser history. Unfortunately it is plagued with pornography links. ;) Lots... of porno and L&R/ATOT links. AT Forums make a new link every time you click on the link for Off Topic or any of the forum links... Kinda lame, so my thing is plagued with at least 2,000 of those... I visit AT pretty often and I visit both forums VERY VERY often, by clicking on the links. So... I bet 18,000 of the links are those ;)

Anyway, it's at least a weeks worth of browsing. :-/ Probably six.

I find that troublesome. I hate having to bookmark everything, browser history is very great to me. Let's me easily search for websites I was going to and was thinking, "Blah, this is nothing good to look at." Then I change my mind, and I can easily go back to it! I was finding that was a HUGE problem, so I keep it all now.

I guess none of you care about reading articles or shit(ATOT)? What the fuck... Do you all just visit just a few websites? I visit hundreds quite often. O_O

I keep an extensive history because I use Safari (in OS X). When I am browsing a site I would... prefer not be remembered in history... I can just turn on Private Browsing mode and it wont keep cookies/history/downloads/etc. So yeah, I'm with you Trident, I love having a long history.

I also got a sweet add-on by some Japanese programmer that lets you view your history in "cover mode" where every site is a small image file and you can slide it to the left or right like in iTunes. Great stuff.

On Windows I use Firefox so I don't keep a large history with that since I just game there.

210 days is what FF is set to, although I set it to that <210 days ago so it's not that long. Probably a month or so so far.

At work, only a day's worth. Everything gets dumped at night before I go home.

On PC at home, it realy doesn't matter.

LOL - I wanted to use the Live.com cashback before xmas, but I didn't know my eBay account info (from work PC,) as it had been since 2004 that I last logged on.

So I go home, hit up eBay, and FF filled in my info for me - 4 years and 3 computer builds since my last log-in. :thumbsup:
