Keeping Track of Your Safari History
You could simply
hack Safari so that it keeps a full year of
your browsing in its history, but that’s probably going to severely slow down Safari’s speed and impede
performance. If you’re looking to keep track of all of your Safari browsing, another option would be to invest $17.95
in Pocketmac Safari Scrapbook:
”PocketMac Safari Scrapbook™ continually archives the actual content behind the Safari web history nightly into a
rapidly accessed database. So, let’s say you read a story 3 weeks ago about giraffes, you could use the program to
locate that article by simply typing giraffe in the search box. It’s just that simple. Once your web page is found, you
can auto-launch the page in Safari with a double-click.”
I thought I’d point it out in case any of you are looking for a self-maintaining database of your past web-browsing. I usually just use Google.

There's also an app called History Hound http://www.stclairsw.com/HistoryHound/ that I have been using with good success. Does the same thing. Looks pretty much the same. Costs about the same. Has a free 30-day demo, which the Safari Scrapbook app does not offer, so i can't compare them. Has anyone used them both? Care to share your findings?
