Google upgrades mobile search response to include your Search History

Google has added a "History" link to the bottom of its mobile search page for Android and iPhone users. This link enables you to see sites that you have just visited or have starred. First, you need to go to "Settings" and enable your device to "Save Searches". Mobile results have a little phone icon next to them. Web sites that you visited will show a little screenshot thumbnail picture next to the listing, to allow you to quickly get back to the right web page. You can also use the "Edit" button to remove any results you don't want to keep. At the top of the History page you can select items that you have put a star next to so that you can easily find and return to the site at another time. One thing you can say about Google, they are always looking for ways to improve the search experience, even when you are mobile.
