Default How to clear Google search history

This Google search bar is quite useful, but how does one clear its search
history? Sharing the computer, I don't want my search topics jumbled with
someone else's and have to look through a long list to get my entries.

See that little down arrow next to the Google name on the left of the
toolbar? Click it. There is the option to clear the history.

Thank you for the link. How clever for you to find it, because I searched
(what else but google) and couldn't find this page. I do rate my own search
skills as poor.
However, about your comment of not reading the toolbar before installing it,
I'm afraid too much has happened in my busy life for this nugget of knowlege
to stay in my admittedly limited human memory bank.
Whatever stays, though, I would be glad to share with those whose life is
equally busy and cannot locate a tidbit of info in a hurry. I would also be
glad to do so without judgment.
In my humble opinionm if everybody would read every page pertaining to every
application installed in their system and retain all the info therein, what
would be the need for usegroups such as these?
My sister is the mainstay of a cooking group. She says all the time, "People
do post stupid questions. If the question irritates you, don't answer. Even
if you supply a solution, there is no good-will, which is the fuel on which
newsgroups are run."
If I had irritated with a stupid question, I do apologise. Let us go forth
and spread more good-will in this world.

Richard

_For the users WITHOUT the Google Toolbar_:
You can also /selectively/ delete the entries from the Google search history
When the history dropdown list opens just select an item from the list and
press the "Delete" key...

Hi Dick,

If good-will was spread on the USENET, then there would really be no
need for them, as a majority of reply posts are a flame of one kind or
another. Even your reply to anonymous was a form of a flame.

Your sister's take on posting replies to stupid questions, besides being
pollyanna-ish, would make for rather boring reading.
