I Love YTtalk
What are your thoughts on how you can now see your search history? To check yours see here:

Personally I think its a really unnecessary feature with the viewing history and I cant imagine anyone really using it and I find it a bit useless. Anyone unhappy about it?
 
I didn't even know about this, thanks michael ;)

It's pretty useless, but I can think of ways it could be useful...
(EG. say you searched for something and found what you was looking for 'but didn't click the video', since you had to go to a restaurants for dinner , but then later you come back and look for the same thing again, but you can't remember what you searched, then you could go to the "Search History" tab and find out the exact words you searched for!, therefore find the video that you needed :P)

Hope That Made Sense!
 
Yeah that does make it worth while, I didnt think about that. I wonder how long they have held this data for, does yours go back any further than four months?
 
Iv actually been using it quite a bit. Ill watch a video, later want to show it to someone, quick flip through my viewed history, done.

Its not the same as viewed, its the actual text searches you have made in the search bar at the top, say you searched "How to make a wooden aeroplane" two months ago, it will list that and whatever else for you to click and search it again.
