> they're still in my history Funny, Google has some perverse incentives here: it might be nice to have a good "history search" built into a browser, but as a search engine provider they won't build it into Chrome.

You could keep full page text for just about any site you visit (so long as the authors don't consider their site a "web app" I guess.)

  And is not invading your privacy as it stays local. I miss this feature all the time on other browsers.

  Have you used it though? Just because it exists, doesn't mean it's good. I've tried usin it several times, and it sucks.
