Are you familiar with chrome history? You certainly have heard it especially if you are using Google Chrome as your web browser. The term primarily refers to the list of internet sites you have visited and are sorted out by dates from the most recent to the oldest. As these are stored in your computer system, anyone who has liberal access into your computer can view the internet sites you recently and frequently visited.

Chrome history serves a lot of purpose. First, it effectively tracks down web browsing activity. This is very important most especially to parents as this will give them an idea of their children’s unattended online activity and forewarn them of possible dangers lurking around. Besides, chrome history proves to be useful when you forget to bookmark or jot down a particular web page as these can be viewed under the recently closed link.

You must have heard about New Internet Explorer 8 or Google Chrome Browser and Private browsing mode they offer. Both of these browser have Private browsing mode (also called anonymous browsing). After reading about this you must be thinking you finally have some inbuilt tool but are they really providing same thing what you thinking ? I believe this term is misleading as it is something different than what private browsing really means.

I am not saying what they say is incorrect but you must understand correctly what and how this mode works, and what privacy will you get with these modes. The privacy mode offered by these or any other browser is not making you anonymous for private browsing which will not tell web server about you, But it will not leave any traces of your browsing history on the computer you using.
